- 1989 Medium Blue Metalic Convertible
I hope that I am not re-hashing an old thread with this question. So please excuse me if that is the case. I did a quick search and did not find this so here goes.
I have a very nice and factory stock 1989 medium metalic blue convertible with the factory white top. I also have the factory stock 17x9.5 wheels. I want to up-date the wheels with something more classic.
Here is my question. I like the older classic 5-spoke look from the muscle car era, where the spoke is wider at the rim than at the hub. The classic Torq Thrust wheel comes closest to that old Crager mag. I was thinking of a grey or black center with a chrome rim. Has anyone with the older C4 tried this type of wheel look? If you have pictures, please post them. I would appreciate your comments and opinions!
Am I nuts with this idea? I enjoy the Z06 thin spoke look but I would like something different.
Best Regards,
