    Get some good ol HRE's or some Iforged.
    If Im not mistaken those spinners are expensive as crap (just like hre and iforge) but dont really look good on a firebird.

    My friend has the 545 HRE's with a big ass lip on his TransAm, very nice!

    iforged.com

    Are you talking about the sprewells? I don't think they would look good on your car, they look good on suv's imo.

    Vette said it best save your money. Besides it would fuck up the ride of the car.

    I agree. I'm not really a big fan of them anyways, but if you do get them it should only be on an SUV

    How about some Torq Thrust II's? Then beef up the engine. Is it a 350 or 6 cyclinder?

    Spinners look bad. Do it up homey, it'll be a definate head turner and chick magnet. Girlies don't care about how fast your car goes, as long as it's pretty on the outside.

    Cheaper then the ones i mentioned before, but they have some nice rims that would look good on a firebird and they aren't too expensive.

    If you think 5-10k+ is more than "ghetto" people can afford.
    You must not know anyone who has a decent hustle game.
    Ride around some of the worst parts of NYC you'll see more that a few 50k+ cars tricked out driven by guess who?

    Yeah "ghetto" people.

    Well, to answer the original question, don't put spinners on your car. Unless that car is a Firebird Formula, it's got a V6, and the wheels would probably be worth damn near the same amount as the car. Why would you do that?

    You need to come down to my block then hommie. Kinda strange when I see people around here I know don't have jobs but are rolling around Escalades with 24's and custom camelion paint just rolling around. Makes me wonder why I bust my ass working and the "ghetto" people have 70k dollar cars with no jobs.

    Anyhow, rims are important but your first concern should be getting it a more agressive look. The absolute must even before rims should be the ram air hood.

    yea that hood definately looks better but i dont feel like getting it unless u get the ram air package installed. i see lots of people that have a v6 and put on the ram air hood to make it look like a better model then it really is......
