They go for $200 online, there's a set in the junkyard for $90. Think I'm gonna do it.

Those look like 17s, which aren't bad. They look terrible in 15".

Offroad wheels to go with the offroad exhaust. On a slammed car.

The top ones for sure. The bottom ones make it look like you've lost your hubcaps or just ran out of $$

I think they'd look good and if it is a junkyard deal even more reason to do so.

They have to be refinished, but oh well. I think I'm gonna have to buy two wheel caps though. This is about the best picture I can get of the caps:

I like your stock rims, IMO if you cleaned up the hub(?) it would look great.

Also, dat cup on the exhaust.

Nice ride. Dig that luggage rack. Not sure about that bosozoku exhaust, but everything else—color, chrome, etc.—looks tight.

Get those wheels. They're nice. The steelies are ass. Either the top ones or half-moon hub caps. ACES out.

The exhaust is actually for Bajas, I'm one of three cars I know of in the world that run that with full fenders.

It's cool enough, don't get me wrong. I guess the car is classy with its upgrades and doesn't need the flash. But then, well, it's unique now isn't it? So never mind. Just change out them wheels and you're all set. That really is a sharp car.

The best part is, instead of the $200 they go for online, I'm getting them from the junkyard for $90.

Can't wait for the girlfriend to wake up, she's got two Beetles. She doesn't really like this car (she's too obsessed with my other one) but I want to know what she thinks.

No, it's just sitting in the backseat. The car sits outside and his little fabric body wouldn't like that.

It's for shows, really.

Nah, Stockies are much better.

Are the ones on the bottom the Porsche style ones or whatever?

Nah, they're stock. I have the Porsche style in stagger fitment on my '61.
