vic_romano 12-16-2005, 10:53 AM goooooo.....very nice. AR Casinos...what size/dimensions? I like that a lot :thumb:
-edit...nevermind i just read your sig...
I like them. What size are they and where did you buy them..? They look smaller than the stock, I might be wrong...but they look smaller to me.
Chevypowered 12-16-2005, 11:01 AM They do look smaller they are 18" x 8" american racing casinos.
silverSS 12-16-2005, 11:03 AM i like em! :twothumbs

c7015 12-16-2005, 11:30 AM I dont like how small rims look when the spokes end way before the lip...the opposie works too to make rims look big (the ss for example)
And DOC the ADRM-Sport-HyperBlackWheels look best to me ...not to mention the cash you save ...(compromise weight most likely)
R33P3R007 12-16-2005, 11:35 AM sweet, nice place you got there too. sux to have a dirt driveway. no matter how clean you still have to drive down it to go anywhere.
I was thinking the ADRM too, I like the ones CHEVYPOWERED put on though. With him being in New Mexico and me being in Virginia its still too close to copy...:lol:
myoshizawa819 12-16-2005, 11:41 AM They look sweet. How much do they weigh?
DomesticDemonSS 12-16-2005, 12:00 PM They do look alot smaller. I like the offset but the stock wheels look better in my opinion. Im sure your's weigh less though! Im having my wheel's made now i'll post pics when I get them. Im going with 19's.
Very clean ride though keep up the good work!

its the lip
wasey13 12-16-2005, 12:17 PM 8" wide wheel? What size tires did you put on?
Chevypowered 12-16-2005, 12:33 PM Yeah the dirt drive way sucks but it is compacted well so theres not too much dust. These weigh about 25.5 Lbs. and the stock ones weigh 24 Lbs. I have the stock rubber on now since i don't have money to get some wide ones. I'm just going to run the piss out of the stockers since they suck anyways. I think if i powder coat the center they will look bigger, not sure if i'm going to though.
blown_06 12-16-2005, 01:53 PM im going with 20s on my ss just for driving around everyday and keeping my stock ones and painting them black to race with. nopi built two ss lowered with 20s check them out at nopi.com.
DJNateGnau 12-16-2005, 01:55 PM Those are hot!

Ya I remember you talking about them on another thread, look good but small.
Chevypowered 12-16-2005, 04:08 PM I bet if i lowered the car they wouldn't look so small. I also thing it's because they get smaller in the center, if i powder coat them that should fix that as well. The look big from the side but when i look at them from an angle they do look much smaller
Mercury 12-17-2005, 12:06 AM I absolutely love them. The lip is perfect.

where did you find the ADR at? do they have them in chrome? 19's?
JapEatr 12-17-2005, 12:10 AM what tire size with 8" wheel?
235/40/18 or 245/40/18?
Chevypowered 12-17-2005, 12:12 AM I want to try to fit some 245/40's in the spring, they should fit in there
where did you find the ADR at? do they have them in chrome? 19's?
www.1010tires.com
I double checked and that site thinks the wheels are 5x100 vs 5x110. They won't fit. :cussing:
RpSS4844 12-17-2005, 01:57 AM I wonder if they would be interested in making some in chrome with the bolt pattern we need? also what offset would we need for the SS?

i like the deep look better with the adr's the bbs look like they are hub caps
stlurbanpunk 12-17-2005, 03:39 AM there altight, but they look too heavy, regardles if they are light or not. they look better suited on a gto or mustang. i would have gone with a darker paint like steel gray. but props on aftermarket.
also whats up with the cone in the center?
Chevypowered 12-17-2005, 09:09 AM yeah that cone does stick out pretty good. I think i will get these powder coated come spring. The offset is +40, ours is 42. Thanks everyone
Wolfman 12-18-2005, 02:10 PM Those are really nice my friend.
05vicredSS 12-18-2005, 02:18 PM Better than stock IMO
Sexxy, bro. Can't wait to see em in person.
