How can I tell if this rim fits my car? It remids me of the Bandit rims.
I think it would look killer on my black GTA.

wow those look great , they would look sick on a 2nd gen with honeycomb wheels. Do you have a link to boyd page . But if they are new wheels yuo wnna buy you can do anything . But if their allready made you need to know the bolt pattern and the backspacing.

I agree that would look killer!

Alexcoqui

This is the original one that came on the 2nd gen trans am.

Alexcoqui

So I have to contact them? I was on their page but there is no info. The only info is the size of the rims.

CGCBandit

Wow, I really like those. What's the price?

18inchboyds

rims

those rims cost a few bucks a piece , 2500 for rims . a little more than i would spend .

Camaroguy18

Boyd custom makes their rims to your specifications, so prices will vary depending on how big, and how wide you want them

Alexcoqui

l know, the price is way hi, more than twice what Im willing to pay for rims alone. But they are exactly what Im looking for. But It dosnt cost to dream & maby in a future...

18inchboyds

you know what would be cheaper by a little . Getting the tuned wheels by boyd ,t he ones like crazyhawaiian has. And then having them powdercoated or painted in the middle like those .

CrazyHawaiian

Yeah, if Boyd makes em then they can be made to fit. Here's a pic of the tuned so you can compare.

18inchboyds

those are pretty close and could get the job done, nice car btw.

CrazyHawaiian

Thanks! I hope I'll have some mamma-jamma brakes like you someday!! They look great behind your Boyds.

18inchboyds

thanks but be warned they hit my rims , i had to use a 5/16 inch spacer to space it out .The other thing i could done it like the guy with the red camaro with tt2's in a foreign country is to grind down where it hit on the caliper . But they are deffy worth it . They are so much safer and look better . But they are so great casue they work so well.

Alexcoqui

CrazyHawaiian, What rims are those on your car? They are beautiful.

Alexcoqui

Whops, I just read the reply by18inchboyds. They are boyd also. So do you have spacers bejind them?

18inchboyds

i will answer for him since i have the same set up . All of boyds wheels are custom made to order. We both dont have spacers on the car . Thats why custom rims cost more because they make them to the specs you want . Both me and him have 18x9.5 in the rear with 5.5 inches of backspacing and the fronts are 18x9 with 4.5 inches bs .

Alexcoqui

And how mush did you end up paing for them if I may ask? including tax & shiping & all.

18inchboyds

1684.68 , thats how much mine were , they are the smoothies . Crazys' cost more than mine i think .

Alexcoqui

Ouch!
Guess Ill have to start saving.

Those rims on an 81 Trans Am I used to own. Would look pretty cool if my bird was black.

They do look amazing but need more of a dish to them. Maybe a darker gold color? Or paint them black or primer?

irocbirdbuilder

I definately think those would look bad *** on a thirdgen of the right color, black, dark blue, maroon.

2500 really isnt that bad though, the Boze's i'm going to get are a hair higher in price

Alexcoqui

The funny thing is that I used to think Ronalds were overpriced. Now they sound like a bargain.

Camaroguy18

only other problem with custom billet wheels is the time to get them. I was told 4-10 weeks for my Coddington Hotrods.....Im on week 3

Alexcoqui

That is of course after you have the money. I still have like a year or so before those exiting 4 to 10 weeks.

18inchboyds

i think mine took 10 weeks or 11 to get them , but i ordered them in early june or late may . Nows the time to do it .

blk91gta

those would look awesome on a black gta

Camaroguy18

just remember though, the prices we're listing are for the rims, tires, lugs, valve stems, mounted and balanced........makes the whole thing not so bad when you look at it

hey Camaroguy18 dont feel bad I think I waited a total of 8 or 9 weeks before I got em I know how ya feel but man they were worth it at least when you get yours you can bolt them on my paint guy is just now getting started on the car again

mettalicirocz

the above post was me forgot to log out on my buddies comp, the main thing to think is yah boyds cost some money but buy your rims once and dont buy something else and then wish you would have bought the boyds the first time

Camaroguy18

exactly, do it once and do it right....after I got that perspective in my mind, the price wasnt as outragous.
