After seeing more and more cars with Torq Thrust 2s I deicded to take mine off. I found these S-10 wheels at the junkyard and paid $40 for all 4. They're 15x7s with 4" of backspacing with 245/60/15s on the rear and 235/60/15s on the front. I'm going for the ultra sleeper look so no one will suspect the turbo 377 under the hood :Brow: Took the pics with my phone so they kind of suck.
I've never seen any factory wheels like that on an S-10, I think you might have scored some early 90's era aftermarkets. Not bad by any means. BTW, is your front bumper fiberglass?
Yep it's a fiberglass piece...I have a rear bumper as well but haven't got around to putting it on yet.
the wheels dont look too bad:beer something different.btw,i have a spare grille i was thinking of powdercoating black,that what you did?
In keeping with my low buck upgrades I opted for Krylon Semi-Flat :laugh: I've been surprised at the durability of it if you want to know the truth. It's been on 6 months and hasn't dulled, flaked, or peeled.
I took a 1000 grit sanding block and scuffed the girll and bezels, wiped it down with rubbing alcohol, then gave it 4 coats of krylon dark grey primer, and 4 coats of krylon semi-flat black. I let it sit in the sun for about 2 hours then put it all back together.
Looks great, I love it! :TU: A buddy of mine had an '89 Astro van with similar wheels... I, as well, think they may be aftermarket. Perhaps made by Ultra.
