Stock vs. Centerlines
Here's the story. I'm almost finished my project car. It's been a difficult go, but I can finally see the end. Anyways, I'm just wanting some opinions. My original wheels are in rough shape. I found a set of the original ones in nice shape for $200 locally. I also have a set of mint Centerlines. Whats does everyone think looks better? Both sets of wheels are 15's and the car is a bone stock 1984 W62 Trans Am.

Re: Stock vs. Centerlines
How about a pic of the Centerlines to help us decide?
Edit: FWIW, I've never like any of Pontiacs wheels on 3rd gens....with the exception of GTA wheels.

Re: Stock vs. Centerlines
they are both ok but i am more of a stock rim kind of guy, although i have been known to go crazy over some old school rims cragar for the camaro.
dump the centerlines.
but keep this in mind. the most common wheel size - 15 inch, is no longer the most common wheel size and im going through heck to get new tires for mine.

Here's a pic with my camaro with Weld Racing wheels. 7 front 8.5 rear. They are dual pattern, and tires are readily available. They look just like the center lines, and ride great too. Personally, I like them.

I vote stock. Just polish them up real nice.
Those Centerline Autodrags have become "boring", to me. Very common & no style.

Re: Stock vs. Centerlines
I have 2 Gold sets of Stock 86 IROC rims. One set I'm Stripping and repainting and polishing to go on the car. Don't really like them, nun-the less they are free, and free is where its at! Also have a set of 92 Z28 rims in perfect shape, just don't like the style. Its a been there done that with the centerlines for sure, but still get many people pull up next to me wanting to race with those rims on. It's a blast to see their jaws drop when I dump the clutch!
And It's a V6....for now.
