    American Racing: Vector's



    i know my personal tastes are way off-camber, but i like these wheels & think they'd look good on my '71.
    is there some era-bastardization i'd be commiting with these wheels? i don't want daddy to talk any shit.


    old pic, but the iroc wheels have been painted blue-gray & i'm gonna tub the beast to fit some bigger tire (bigger than 245's)

    should I paint an 01 on the side & stars & bars on the roof? ;D

    Man, I like that thing just the way it is. Those current wheels look like late-80's IROC wheels or something? They work for me. If you put those shiny new wheels on it, then you'll have to pretty up the rest of the car.

    I don't disagree with the new wheels, they look cool, but you may mess up the "balance" of the car as I see it now.

      trim pieces are too expensive, i'll just shoot it with a flat dk. green. after it's been shaved, smoothed, & filled.

      thanks. i like it, too. i'll like it more if I ever get to put the 4th gen camaro subframes & ls1 in it. ;)

          Vector's are like Centerlines and Cragar SS, it's hard to go wrong with them on a '70's bodystyle. I say go for it 8)
          Just groovin' to my own tune.
