12.9 @ 109 on a stock 87 Trans am??????

Anyway, wheels are personal preference, but if that was my car I'd put 17" charcoal ROH ZS wheels on it, but then again, I'd put those on just about anything. :sillylol:

Black or silver GTA wheels would be a great choice.

17" Torque Thrust IIs would look good.

He asked for "Bling Bling" wheels.

Why anyone would want "Bling Bling" wheels is beyond me.

He must be young, maybe we can call that upcoming generation the "Bling Bling Generation"

It's got kind of a "Bling Bling" ring to it, dosen't it.

My advice to you would be to keep your stock rims and save your money so you can buy a set of wheels that are tasteful and worth your money.

I don't know, I think his current rims look decent. I'd rather save the money and buy some performance mods but I guess he has other plans

I think bling-bling is some sort of slang for shiny??

I don't know why people can't just say what they mean. We'll all know what they're talking about without an ebonics lesson, and they'll probably garnish a little more respect too.

just save your money untill you can get what you really want.
It makes more sense. If you buy a cheap set of rims you will only keep them for a while, sell them and buy new ones. Losing the money you put in them in the first place.

The ones on it are not that bad. just shine them up and keep you tires clean and shined untill you can get new ones.

To clarify, "bling bling" or "blingin'" is slang for a piece of "ice'' (jewelry), big chrome rims or anything that stands out hence "bling" that would show that you're a big baller (has lots of money). It originated from the english language by a young man by the name of B.G. or baby gangsta of cash money millionaires. I thought that i'd just shed some light on this since everyone is butchering the term.
Some examples-
Bling Bling!

Not Bling Bling!

Actually "bling bling " did not come from B.G. of Cash Money it came from 2Pac. On one of his songs (forgot which one) on the Until the End of Time cds he says bling bling in the background.

Who gives a crap what bling-bling means anyway? Rap sucks and shouldnt even be considered music.

Man you guys can be a bunch of jack-***'s.........

He could have been kidding, even if he was serious.....what a bunch of homos.

I think you need chrome wheels on that thing. Maybe 17 or 18" Torque Thrust 2's? Also I think chrome 17" Firehawk wheels would look awesome.

I knew this would get out of control. I should have closed it before you all had a chance to screw it up.
