+1 google your car year and look at images to get an idea. It is not easy picking custom wheels!

For me, it would be the original Torque-Thrust 5 spoke, or the Western Wheels "Minilite Replica"....

Never liked Vectors until I saw Mod75's! His car wears 'em like the burger joint waitress I know wears her jeans!

I agree! I do like the Torque Thrusts as an aftermarket rim but will always have a warm spot in my heart for the factory YJ8 and Rally Wheels!

Are we doing nice wheels with silly backgrounds? Okay, here are the (hubcapless) N90s on my 80. I parked in an open spot, but it looks like the buses parked like TACOs to avoid door dings. And not to nitpick c3cpo, but those are N90s, too (with hubcaps), not YJ8s, only much shinier and better looking.

Either way, the stock aluminum wheels are great on a stock car, but Mod75 and FINWOLF's cars looks just about perfect with the fenders and deep dishes.
