Fantastic. I love a nice black paint job. I said paint job. :oops:

One thing though. Is it me or is the side stripe not on straight?

I wish I could answer that. Would love to get that stance on mine. Looks as though they are 17's, as 18's would leave no side wall rubber. Although the more I look at them, the more I think they have to be 18's. I had 275 40 17's on a previous car, and they didn't look that big. ????

The rim cap looks much like the centre caps on American Racing Rims - and the only rim they make that looks like this is the Torque thrust. They wouldn't be the Torque Thrust D, but maybe a Torque Thrust II.

If anyone knows, would love the imput.

Not the Torque Thrust II either. SteveO has those on his and they dont fan out to the outside of the wheel like that.

Their is a car similiar to this on E-bay right now. The 71 on E-bay has a shaker hood though. Looks great! The shaker is factory but the rear deck spoiler and stripping are add ons. If I knew how to post the link I would. Check it out. Patrick

Hey Christer. I spent a good couple hours fooling around on the listed sites and couldn't find our match. My eyes are always open, and I won't forget to locate their origin. Thanks for the leads.

Found ‘em!
Stockton Wheels SWS-TQ offer polished or chrome. 18's are shown.
I could see myself going for 17's in the future.
