First ever alum GN rims. pics.

[SPOOLFOOL2]

Can someone photoshop the rim as it is unpainted to his car? I'm curious to see what it would like unpainted.

No need to bother with the photo shop. Rims are here.

They look sweet. I'm going to snap a few pics, then off to get the tires mounted. I should have pics tonight.

Its worth staying home on a Friday night to see these pics ...:biggrin:

Here they are.

First off I need to give a big thanks to my freind and neighbor Mr. Alan Budnik (AKA Budnik Wheels) for letting me talk him into the crazy idea of making forged rims for a twenty two year old Buick Regal.

Dude! Are you nuts?

So, after over two decades of waiting, I give to you the first set of aluminun GN rims on planet Earth. (Note: there may be a set or two on Mars).

Stocker vs alum

Hope these pics will keep you guys drooling untill tomorrow when I post pics of them on the car.

Happy spooling.

I wouldnt be so fast to pass judgement on a price,when he got the roller lifters made they ended up being better quality than the comp lifters and $100 cheaper i gurantee you noone saw that coming!! Im just sayin you never know...

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.

Even with these things made in the USA, and forged center sections, was told that cost "should" be around $600.00 each.

My rims came with valve stems, lug nuts and socket. I had longer studs on my car for track use, and was given nuts without the cap/ tops.

Aluminun center caps are a push on type. And require you to pop out your center power 6 logo from your old plastic caps and silicone into the new alum ones.

Rims can be ordered in either polished or painted.

Pics of wheels on car tomorrow.

Happy spooling.
