Thanx alot man.... looks pretty good! I would appreciate any shots from different angles... I don't think I'm going with the ZQ8 wheels this time around... but I have wanted to see what they look like for a long time. I made a massive thread about it a while back.

For some reason I could reply to the main topic about you car but I wanted to get it in. here we go.

I like it except the spoiler IMO nothing beats the aero spoiler. One thing I would change is the tail lights to the 91-92 style or black those out. The red just kills the flow of the car.

You should use one of these carpets in it.

Well I ordered the dark med grey carpet from there I will be putting it in my car after the subframe install. The standard color atleast is ACC carpet. I am assuming the extrem would be also.

As far as I know, all these rims are the same size, and have the same offsets.

All Iroc rims
91-92 Z28 and RS rims which are also the original s10/zq8 wheels

...and of course the new zq8 wheels that Trooper has.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's correct.

That's wild, I thought for the longest time that those were 16 x 7. I passed on a set of those cause I thought they were too narrow. Oh well...crazy looking car!
