Nice. I gotta admit, i have seen those wheels on 4x4's before and thought they looked like crap. Never thought about them on a car. They look really good on there!!

My wife and I totally disagree about the style of rim we like. This is one of a very few that is in a reasonable price range that we kinda agree on. As she put it, this one was her 152nd choice. It wasn't my first choice either, but I like to have some kind of peace in the house. Someday when my budget allows there will be a better set of rims on it. Besides, the rear ones don't have the right offset to keep them from rubbing the outer lip. They are 295/50-15 on a 10" wide rim w/4" backspacing. If I could get it to 5" backspace it would be perfect.

Well, in that case just 15x8. Wanted to get those in 15x8 all around for the monte, but couldn't find any pics other than narrow ones.

I want a 73 real bad.
Nice pair of G3's you have! The weather here today wasn't conducive to taking the cars out...only for salt trucks
