Like those above where the centercaps cover the lug nuts or like in the picture below with exposed lug nuts? And do you have all 4 center caps? Oh,.. and 4 lug or 5 lug?

I'm willing to part with these pretty rare 4 lugs if I can get my asking of $325. They are not perfect, but certainly unusual.

Look like ROH Saleen replica wheels to me,.. (Shrug).
They look nice and I would have liked them for my son's car. But they wont work on my 93. I'm going 5 lug with 13" Cobra rotors and Calipers up front.

Those are the 3 piece like I posted....I had a hard time finding center caps new in 93....I bet it would be next to impossible to find them now. Those wheels were pretty expensive even then. For 15's I think I paid 350+ per wheel

Baaah.

Probably only 15x7 like the wheels on my wife's old car.

Hell I'm not even sure 16" wheels will fit.

I'll let you know. The car will be going in for paint in mid Jan some time and depending on how it gets painted will determine the wheels I go after.

Heh,.. I traded a 72mm or 75mm MAF for all 4 on the black car (With tires!). Was missing 2 center caps. I located some but I wasnt paying $100 each for 2 center caps. The car got sold just like in the pic.

Thats what I'm thinking. I know its pretty tight even with a 17" wheel on there.

I havent decided 100% which way to paint the car yet. I'm torn between keeping it 2 tone or going with a solid color with Shelby Leman's stripes,.. and my wife is throwing out idea's as well like painting the car pure gloss white with titanium flames on the front. So many choices,.. my mind is in over load.

Here are some 2 tone colors I've been playing around with.

The first is what my car looks like now. The rest are ideas.













or





















.

.

Also thinking about a dark shadow grey or gun metal metallic gray with white lemans strips and Shelby Eleanor wheels like this.

I photoshopped this wheel on here,.. picture these wheels but on a greay car with white stripes.




And the stripes I'm thinking about would be like on this car,.. but not a red car. These are as close to the original Shelby Lemans stripes on a Fox that I could find.


.

And then my wife saw this car,.. and I thought it looked good also. A pure gloss white Fox GT with Titanium Frost flames on the front.


.

So many choices,.. and I'm still looking for more ideas. I'll have changed my mind 100 times between now and when the car gets painted.

As for wheels,.. The CCW's on this car are looking good,


And my wife found this car and I learned that they are called TSW Montages
