Those wheels are real nice! I have a set like these but a older model.... These would be pretty nice as well! But not as nice as the wheels rick is aiming for!

personally i like the panasports or empis (whatever alvin has, and tha silver roadster he has a link for)..... actually i like a lot of rims, but these 5 slots i have just arent "all that" but good for a free set of rims

I prefer stock or Panasports, but the 5-slots have that classic '60s look. And you got 'em free, eh? SWEET! 8)

Those look cool, but are they any lighter. How wide are they? I'm always looking for a set of race wheels so I don't have to worry about driving a set of nearly 40 year old cast wheels on the track. It would really suck to have a wheel break. Where do you find all these cool wheels?

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!
