Default Forum Wheel Database...

I have an idea...wondering if there would be interest and if one of the admins could make this happen. One repeated topic in C3 is always, wheels. What kind, what fits, how do the look on 19XX etc. How hard would it be to just have a page of pics of forum member rides and below it the wheel style and year. For me I have to see the wheel on the car to decide if I like it or not. Since this is always asked seems it would be usefull. What do ya think? :confused:

i think this would be extremely useful i have made four different posts out there asking for wheels and tires and havent got much of an answer even though many people have viewed them. hopefully one of the admins will read this and take up your idea.

Only a couple of guys are shopping for new wheels at any given time. ;) I think it would get a lot of use and it is a very good idea.
