got a set of wheels today.. :)

[jadigen]

since i had a friend photoshop that car for me i have been going back and forth between white and the silver wheels..

i had pretty much chickened out on the white wheels and was gonna go the safe route and get the grey ones..

so i'm surfing craigslist and there is a set of white 17" pony wheels with good tires for half of what the combo would cost new.. i took that as a sign..lol.. so i went and looked at them today and they were in great shape so i bought them,.. figured worse case i would just have them painted grey..





so glad i got white wheels.. they really pop on the car i think.. just have to keep that top nice and white..lol.. i love the smaller side walls of the 17" tire...

even made in the USA

looks alright. I had some ponys painted white years ago

I had a set of white ponys on my 89 gt. the car was black/grey two tone. Yes, white ponys on a black and grey car. It had turbines on it and I just wanted ponys. Could have painted them but I didn't care.
Yours looks cool. I love white ponys

 

[GroverDill]

kinda like.

The wheels are a great first step. Now you just need to paint the car and moldings white and you've got the total package

For some reason this look is growing on me - I like how the white top bounces with the white wheels ....

I was dead set against white wheels on your car, even though I like Ponies in general, however it looks very good. Still stock yet cleaner and newer. Good call.

i was second guessing the white also.. figured if i didn't like them i could always get them painted grey.

Looks perfect, I love white Pony wheels. You even scored an earlier set that takes the OEM center caps - bonus!

I think it looks good man, I like the color of that car too. I am not sure if white wheels would have been my first choice, but cant pass up a set of 17" ponys for a steal. If anything throw them on corral and make some $$$.

Like the look of the wheels on the car, and how the wheels go with the top too.

the newer wheels don't take a factory center cap? that would have been a bummer..

From what I understand the first variant of the Pony R's had the same diameter and stock caps fit great. The later ones had a larger hole that only Pony R's center caps fit. I have the American Muscle 17" Pony wheels and theirs also accept stock caps (which is something I want to find for mine.)

 

[jadigen]

weird.. i juts figured that all the wheels were made by the same company and just sold by different people.. thats good to know.. i really wanted the stock center. i think it looks better then the pony R ones.. just dumb luck i sound them. i knew nothing about it...

guy i got them from says it was around 2004 that he bought them.. said a place in texas sold them. he has a sweet white notch back he ran them on for a bit.


not sure if this is who made them or who they were made for..

they do sat Pony R on the back also..

 

[aar0s]

That's who they were made for, I think their website is still up but I'm not sure if they are in business anymore.

 

[mob]

Yea those gotta be Pony R's pretty sure no one else makes them in 17". I remember they stopped making them a while back and then they came back into production. You may have one of the original ones.

I think the car looks great with those white pony rims!

 

[Mr. Snrub]

Definitely nice the stock caps fit... The pony r caps are a dealbreaker for me.
