I think you were talking about these about the last ones above. Those would have been sweet if you could get them staggered.

the ones in the last shot are the MC2 FZ6 wheels and they are pretty much garbage dipped in chrome.

theyre almost guaranteed to crack, the chrome is GOING to peel off and i wouldnt trust those wheels for anything.

Amen. It's rare to find a set that haven't cracked and the chrome will peel off regardless. They were a good dealer marketing idea in late 04 to help move the remaining 04's off the lots, but they just weren't quality wheels.

I would rock those retro style wheels in a heartbeat. Those are freaking badass. $129,900 for the 'Burt Reynolds' edition resto-rod...crazy.

I have never seen the top one before(retro honeycomb). I wonder what they would look like on the GTO.
