| Ehhhh... Man, I don't want to sound like a jerk, but I'm not a fan of either on that car. You need some painted rallyes and wide whites or a solid polished wheel or something... Oh, and lower it! I really love the way that thing looks tho! Like this: Or this: | |

| I like it,.. now go get some more of that woodgrain vinyl and put on those stainless dust shields.
Lowering it would be really cool but like me I won't do it, only because when we travel,.. this is what we take. The 6 of us in it lowers it enough. I know when I get all my new springs and bilstein shocks in my will have a higher ride as well. Good enough for me now. But I am hearing you Crovo. | |

Like this:
One of these dayz it will get lowered,I have a set of airbag brackets front and rear that have been collecting dust.When ever I get around to it ill be filling them up at gas stations like air shocks. The rallies that i love are American Racing VN327 327 Rally Mag. A pair 20x12 with 315/35r20 would look absolutely killer. I also have an idea for a low buck 20" rally,'Top Secret'. - 1993 Roady-man wrote:

My son said the same thing about the wood grain on the disc simulators,or even on the spokes which came with black plastic inserts maybe ill give a weekend project. | |

| I'm just glad that after reading the thread title, this wasn't in the "adult" section. | |

| Yesssss wood those inserts, that will look cool and so much better than the dust shields. Since they will look odd cus of the grain direction. | |

| Lose those dust shields. They look horrible. Wood grain in the spokes would be sweet as hell though. |

| Yeah..wood grain on the spokes! I like the wheels too (but those dust shields look like a pain to keep clean) | |

| I think the dust shields stick out too much. From the stock photo you posted, they look like they've got some potential though. |

The shields will stay until i can afford an brake upgrade and rear disc. - brokecello wrote:

I do have some extra wood grain for the spokes when i get around to it i will surly post. I use Eagle One wire wheel/chrome wheel cleaner works the best for me. | |

| I need educating. Why are 'dust shields' necessary? I thought their function was to hide the brake gear. Yes; No? | |
