Tom: Springs, maybe some in front, but I'm hoping that the weight of the spare tire & jack will settle the front down a little too.
Joe: The wheels are actually silver. The setting sunlight I had made them appear slightly gold-colored.

Sometimes the best body mods are none at all... The car is a definite sleeper.
Love the color, love the rims.

Hope you don't mind if I pitch in one.
I will also attest that the Dave's Fiero is probably the fatest one out of this bunch!

Does anyone have any (visual) suggestions on ways I could use one of these pics in a signature? I'm no expert with Photoshop like some of you are.

Man that looks great! What kind of wheels are those? It's hard to find nice looking wheels with the 5x100 bolt pattern. I wanted to stick with the stock look or those, but I haven't been able to find any of those at a decent price. I don't like many of the new wheels being sold today (well, at least not on my Fiero). Thanks, --Bryson

Throw an '88 chassis into the equation and it's several times more difficult, because you need to have a different offset for the front and rear wheels. '88s need 35mm in the rear, and 40-45mm in front. If you try to do same-size 35/35 front and rear, thinking you can rotate them then, then the fronts stick out too far and look misfit. As for the cost, well, they're pricey, but cheap wheels look cheap. On the flip side of that, expensive wheels look it, but don't necessarily look good on the car. All this and more was why it took me 6 months to pick those wheels.

Thanks for the information on the wheels. I noticed the front and rear wheels had a difference in the lip, but I didnt know the numbers for the offset. Who makes the wheels you have on your car? Thanks, --Bryson
