I Got my wheels today! woohoo!

[SupaStealth]

yay!, i got my wheels today, man do they look awesome, i haven't had a chance to mount them, i got off of work at about 6:30 today and everywhere was busy ah well, i guess i'll get them on tomorrow hopefully they fit since they're the 5-114.3 bolt pattern, but they're gaurenteed so if they don't i can return them, i don't even have to pay shipping.

for all those who haven't seen what they look like, here they are.

p.s. i should have pics of them on my car late tomorrow on here

[Rora99]

supastealth, let me be the first one to congratulate you on your new rims. hope they fit. by the way, what size are they? BSA 259's right?

[SupaStealth]

heh, they're 18x7.5's, BSA 291's actually and thank you ;D

the tires that are goin' on them are 255/45-18 Continental ContiSportConact's, they're also beautiful

[erw38]

Congrats ;D Of course we expect pics!

[stevensolds]

Cool i cant wait to see the pics

[bLACk AurOrA]

me either. i sorta want to put some rims on my rora...

[MBowen574]

I'd put rims on the G (haha just kidding), but it's a four bolt pattern!! Who thought that one up?

It's just as well... I don't think 141 hp could turn anything bigger than 15" anyway...

[SupaStealth]

Woohoo!!!, they fit, and they look awesome, i was goina get some pictures but the guys batteries were dead, so i should get them tomorrow after work. no wobbles or anything.

the looks people give me are awesome, i can just see in there eyes "cool" and "what the hell kind of car is that?" ;D

Sweet!! I'm soooo glad to hear that the 5x114.3 lug pattern will work on our 5x115 hubs. That opens up a whole new set of possibilities for aftermarket wheels for our cars. Too bad I just bought some 300C wheels on eBay. Oh well, I'm sure I can find someone to buy them from me. Anyway - CONGRATS man, I look forward to seeing some pics. P.S. Thanks again for being the guinnea pig on the rim size thing.

Speaking of Chrysler wheels... I always thought the 300M Special wheels would look great, and they're a good 18" size. Another option is the AT Italia Inox. I think it would look spectacular on the second-gen Aurora:

Check it out there. They're wheel numbers 13 and 14, and specifically I'm talking about the Silver-finished face with black accents in 18x8" size. I think it would look great!

Really neat!

I had mentioned that a while back about using the Special M wheels on the Classic Aurora,
I like the sport look to them, now that I own the Special M, I got to say they look super nice.

[oldsauroraman1]

Ahhhhh. Just can't stomach the thought that my classy, top-of-the-line OLDSMOBILE Aurora would ever be placed on a cheap Chrysler product - even though they do look good!

[erw38]

Where are the pictures. I'm still waiting for them.

[oldsauroraman1]

Hey, that's right. Me too!
