Finally picked up my new rims today..........just thought I share it with anyone interested in checking it out!!! Is it to much bling??? Or not enough??? The center caps are being custom made so I'll have to wait on that one too.

SIZES ARE: REAR (18x9 with +38 offsets by HP Design, rolling on Falken Azenis RT 615, 255/40/18)
FRONT (17x7 with +35 offsets by EXEL E-2, rolling on Falken Azenis RT 615, 225/45/17)

Nice. What happen to the other ones? You wanted bling instead?

Well to make a long story short......notice that I have two different manufacturer for my rims on the front and the rear. Both rims had a slight difference in color. That is why it ended up Chrome (BLING, BLING). But they were the same rims from before, I had them Chromed so they match. So there you have it!!!

Oh yeah, I like the tire dressing too.

Here's what I think. I think it looks really bad and you should sell me your car for like $1 or so so you dont have to be seen driving it.

Very Nice!!!!

Only thing better than the blingin wheels is the tires. They're the bomb, you'll love them if you haven't fully exercised them already. If you have you probably already know how good they are. I have them on my GTI...205 wide and awesome grip. I wuv them

Thanks for all the compliments ya all...................as far as having my tires exercise, well I have experienced the capability of the tires. And yes they are pretty awesome.

Thanks again ya all. You guys don't know what I've been through getting the right fitment for my car. You ask what's next? Well, I'm still waiting for my center cap. I will post when I get them. I'm hoping if it comes out right I might be able to sell a few, if the public like what they see of course. So stay tune on that one. Next project will be installing my stainless steel exhaust manifold that West Coast Fiero (Steve...Tennessee) fabricated for me and a whole new exhaust system with the Spin Tech muffler and a new Tips. Then after that maybe I can finish my sound system. Need to finish the finishing touches for all my stereo components behind my seats. After that who knows. It's a never ending thing that we do with our pride and joy. I'm sure ya all can relate.

Happy Fieroing,
Jess

Ok Pack them up and send to, AusFiero........ ...... .....Australia Hehe
Very nice.

Do those wheels have a lip on them, both front and back?

I saw the first before picand thought, hmmm those look sweet!
Then went down a bit and saw the new rims your talking about..... All I can say is, Damn you got some sick rims!

quote Originally posted by MstangsBware: Do those wheels have a lip on them, both front and back?

Yes they do MstangsBware......this is what they looked like before they where chromed.......I think the lip is about 3-1/2" in the rear wheels and 2" in the front wheel.

Thought they did have but the one close up picture of the rear wheel is decieving. Where did you get those wheels from, do you have a web site for the company?

Kooljess,

All the work and searching paid off. The wheels look great! Where did you get the wheels chromed? I want to get my stock 88 GT wheels chromed and yours came out very nice. How much did it cost? Thanks again for posting pics of my car.

Had it chromed at a place in Bell Gardens, California. The place is called "G" Boyz Custom Wheels (562) 806-3777 talk to Oscar and tell him Jess with the Red Fiero sent you. It cost me $135 a wheel. I am also having my center cap custom made. So lets see how that comes out. Thanks again for the compliments.

Outstanding!
You really did yourself proud.

I have 18 inch Excel Daytonas all the way around, and I wanted a lip like that. The picture I saw of my wheels was pretty decieving. But, that was the look I was going for. Your wheels are pretty sharp. What realy does it for me is the lip, and the front to rear stagger....I love how the rears look sooo wide. Got me ready to buy two new rears with the a fatter lip.

That's what I'm talking about..........wider rims and wider lip is the only way to go.
