If nobody has any pics thats Ok, Buts I want everyones opion also. Is it a stupid idea i should just sleep off, or something everyone will think is cool. Even though I already know its my car and my choice as some of you will tell me, I value my bbd sign crew to tell me like it is.

15x4 Torq Thrust D's
15x8 Widened steelies in the back. Gloss Black

Thanks
Mike

It'll look awesome. Torque Thrust or Cragar S/S.
Both rims are the coolest rims ever made in my opinion, although the Cragar's are my personal favorites.
We always ran mags in the front and steel rims in the back when I was a young man.
Its Old School!

I think the Americans in the front with gloss steelies in the back is one of the baddest lookin' combinations, especially on the strip.   Crager S/S with the same steelies would be my second choice.   Go for it, it'd definately be cool...

What do they say"great minds think alike". I couldn't find a used set of vintage torques so I am using my secind choice. Slots up front and paint black cop wheels out back. I have matching slots for the back to change tires. But I like the OLD school look.  I also don't have the bumper on my car, It came with tabs and the tow bar.
