RATE MY CAR (and suggest rims)

just got pics of my formula up. let me know what you all think. also i would like suggestions on what rims to put on her. i dont think the factory 16's do her much justice. im looking for 17X9.5 all around. what looks best on a formula?

the first two pics are on a sunny day with a digital camera, and the rest where done on an overcast day with a regular camera. the overcast ones do not do the chameleon paint justice.

Re: RATE MY CAR (and suggest rims)

Great looking car! As far as rims, you could try out something from ROH.

Check out ROH Wheels at Group A Wheels...

I have the RTs on mine. I think they look sweet on an f-body. They are 17x9... You can see pics of them at my website (link in the sig).

Another nice one is the ZS. They make them in a 17x9.5

Be sure to let us all know what you decide to get!

thanks for the compliments. would torq thrusts look good on a formula? ive seen them on a 2001 ws6 and it looked badass, but thats a whole different animal.

I don't have a TA, but know people who do. I would put a "war bird" hood on it and maybe some moldings. I like the firehawk rims or this kid with a V6 "WS7" has chrome Z06 wheels on it and it looks really good. I would get the hood...it is like the new WS6 hoods with the big nostrels. I've never seen one in that color...I bet it would look sweet!

whatever wheels you get make sure they are wide. at least 9.5, i have 17x9.5's and i dont get the best traction. come check out my wheels, i think their cool but wish they were 18"s

ZR1s on Formulas look awesome, their was one in GMHTP, blue 95, looked good. Thats the reason I went for minw. They can only look good. They are plain and simple. They cant look bad.

Pretty good car. But just looks like another stock formula, but in good shape.
