New wheels for my Buick (dreaming)
Saturday, September 05, 2009 11:06 PM
Okay, so after the wish list post... I've been browsing wheels online. Just dreaming. I'd like to find something for both my Malibu and the Skyhawk...

So, found these two... what do you think? 15"? 17"? any better ideas?





or this one in 17"?


I'm still kinda thinking dark metallic gray, or possibly staying silver on the bottom, and black on the hood, rood and trunk (getting rid of the luggage rack, and adding a small lip spoiler)

Of course this would require lowering too...

With 17" wheels, comes the price of 17" tires--15" may just be the way to go.

I like the looks of the first one, but don't care for the flush look. The second one would look better with the spokes painted a gunmetal color or black. Don't like the third set.

Hmmm... good point on the price of tires...

and I agree on not liking the flush look. I like a nice dished lip... but I still kinda like #1, however, instead of painted spokes on #2, how about painted area to the sides, and behind? (if that makes sense)

Yup, I know what your saying and yes, I think that would look good.
