Bling Bling Looking good, I especially like the tail lights! Are you driving on the grass to settle the suspension or to save the tires?

Garth,
Leave me nuts outa 'dis b'y.
They're Gotti Etoile 455s 10" X 17" rears with 275/40s and 81/2" X 17 fronts with 255/40s.
The wheels were probably made in the early 80s.

I like it!

They remind me of 3-piece OZ racing wheels!

But the BIG question here is: Are they holding air now Ernest? Seriously, seeing what you have now versus what you started with; the powdercoating and all, they look great.

Did you just have them refinished? They look new?

I had them powder coated black and clear after they were refinished.
