Started this thread a long time ago...and finally settled on some a few months ago...but hadn't posted pics yet. Here they are. These are 18" wheels I bought on eBay for $450 shipped, brand new. They'll really look great once the paint is done!
Boyd Coddington Smoothie II, 7"wide front.....8"wide rear; Got 'em for a steal; Guy took them off PT Cruiser and I bought for $500 including the Kuhmo Ecsta tires which were almost new; 225x45x17 fronts....245x45x17 rears:

You sir, should be behind bars, for that was indeed thievery.

Fierotaz. Can you shed some a light on the size, offset and backspacing of both front and back wheels. BTW your car is the definition of BAD ASS! I love it. It's my background on my PC!

Sorry, I did not see your question earlier. The rear wheels are 20 X 12 and the front are 19 X 9. I will have to look up the offset and backspacing info when I get a chance. I am glad you like the car!
Don't remember seeing it there for too long. Few months maybe? I live around there and used to drive by it every day. Theres another guy around the corner with a red Formula too.

I always wanted to see a Fiero with these. At one point I was going to put these instead of the TSWs in my red car but they were not quickly available in 9". They look great!
Those are nice Madcurl...... So when are you going to get them?
------------------------------ THINGS THAT PONDER YOU ----------------------------
1. I know your money is burning a hole in your pocket. 2. Late nights unable to sleep because your thinking of this rim. 3. Where to get 1000 or so for each 4. You know they will look good and fit perfect. 5. You "think" you might be car king again with this mod. 6. If you are married, this might be the end
Just playin...... YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT THOUGH
COME TO THINK OF IT THEY LOOK LIKE MINE?
WOW..... SO CLOSE!!!!!

The Iforged rim is aircraft aluminum (same as any other high end wheel company) but the center pieace is dipped or coated in the material you're now viewing. Look to see a company redipping center aluminum pieces; just like in the pic. There's another way to skin a cat, right?
i had many folks at the swap meet yesterday ask me about my wheels, i dont know much about them except i bought them off ebay for 140.00 delivered to my door, i thought about putting new wheels on my car but seems i get alot of comments on them everywhere i go and had'nt seem them on another fiero yet so i'll leave them on it for now, i like the chrome look better than dull aluminum

Ryan, what's up with the back caliper being at the front of the rotor?
Car looks good. Paint it, lower it, and tint it.
Thats how it is on the 87s. Its already lowered it just isn't settled in that pic. I took that pic right after I got it back on the ground. Once my 3800sc swap is done it will be getting paint and some new glass and tinting.
