Several questions though.
1. What year is your car?
2. What is the backspacing of the fronts and the backs?
3. Did you but them used or new? if new, who did you buy them from because I need their info.

Thanks for the reply!

They are very similar to the ones you took off. It's amazing how the subtle differences make for what is IMHO a completely different attitude for the car.

Yes,Totally
i remember when i put 16 x 8 Formula wheels on the 82 Bird
replacing the 1987 15 x 7 set that i had
Wow it changed completely
IMHO and im sure a lot of you will agree ....wheels are 80% the look of the car .-

The wheels look great but the backs look like they really stick out quite a bit?

Nice rims Geo...those S1's look great on a C4.

Now you need to lower it.

Found this on another site...I believe the car belongs to Locobob..
