What cars share the TR's bolt pattern?
Call me nuts, but I really like plain steel wheels. I want to scrounge around and try to find some old Corvette Rally wheels, or even just some deep plain jane steelies for the TR. I'd just paint them silver and slap on some chrome trim rings. Not concerned with any center caps, the lugs will be exposed.
Ugly? Yes. Badass looking? To me..yes

Most all GM rear wheel drive cars have 4 on 4 3/4" bolt pattern.

Steel wheels are a good choice for a T-type, it's sort of "disarming" versus say a shiny set of Welds.

I think I'm just sick of all of the "Bling" (Damn I hate that word) nowadays... Everything you see on TV is decked out in chrome 22" wheels, TV sets in the headrests, X-box's, etc. etc. It's all so obnoxious, I thought the 80's were the "decade of excess". The 80's have nothing on the '00's. I'd say I like "Old School", but that term is getting worn out too... "We're buildin' us a old school chopper here, blah blah blah..." I just like the simple things I'd take a so called "Rat Rod" over a billet Boyd sculpture any day...![]()

Thanks, I haven't had much time to do anything with it, it's put away for the winter right now. Only thing I have a problem with is, he said the car passed emissions, and indeed it had an '06 sticker on it. I brought the car back and it failed emissions horribly. He had told me the cat was gutted, so I bought a new cat and it still failed. Now that I have a Scanmaster I'll make sure everything is dialed in properly, and I'm going to get a classic plate for it so I don't have to deal with emissions. I did a compression check on it about a month ago, and all of the cylinders were 150lbs, give or take a lb or two. My wife came into the house one day and said to me "I see your Chrysler Sebring passed emissions". I looked at her with the face. She said "Go check out the sticker on your Buick." . So I go out to the garage, and the inspection sticker on the window has, in small print, "'03 Chry Seb". (Think it was '03, but you get the idea) . I can't think of a single legit reason why that sticker is on there, but I haven't bothered to ask him about it. It's too late now anyways.Regardless, the car seems solid, and I look forward to slowly getting it to where I want it.
