So with the mild weather today, it was a perfect day to get the new wheels on. Damn, are they sexy! What a difference. What do you think?

Those are horrible looking. Box em up and send em to me here in Texas so can save you from shame.

Looks good.

yeah they look good man.. But iv always had a soft spot for the spoked GT wheels.. Iv always loved the way they look on any model fiero. I just wish they where 1" bigger.

But the new ones look sweet man..

Man i cant wait untill my Fiero is drivable again.. I wanna take it for a spin so bad.. But for now, ill have to live vicariously through all of the forum members Fieros.. lol.

Well, I love the lace ones more than anything, but I guess in the realm of aftermarket, those would top my list Very nice!

Very nice. Now you need to paint the calipers red and get some drilled and slotted rotors to make it look extra pretty.

Thise rims look awesome! I love the look of a wingless GT and the bigger simple wheels are fantastic. Great choice! Now its time for a brake upgrade! 12 inch corvett all the way, with the later 2 piston front calipers.

Those look great Hulkie

Dan, being an older Ferrari fan...................NO. Just my opinion, but that turned a ' Ferrari ' into instant rice. The original AREs on it originally looked far better. But its only your opinion that matters. I paid almost $500 each for Ferrari clones on mine. AREs were close.

i want a modern look to go with the vintage style.
that photoshop pic above, is a way future thought. i am leaning more toward a newer color
overall. a dark copper, or a DARK wine/crimson pearl.
gunna try a P 'shopped photo with the existing non-black lower, first.
just to see the DiVinic wheels on the all red.

Hey Chris! Nope, dash still not completely finished, but I'm getting there. I will have the car at Lititz in the spring, and Carlisle in the summer. I'll get with you and come out to visit sometime soon buddy.
