I will be posting pictures of my 1997 B/W. I just ordered a swt of 19" 505's. Should be on the car next week. I will post.

I went with the HRE's because of the 18" choice. I like the looks of both but over time the price difference between 18" & 19" tires will more than make up the price difference in wheels.

Plus I think 19" is too big IMO. I don't like the rubber band look.

I decided to go with 18" 547's over the Purners due to the fact the Purners are only in 19". IMO the 19"s look good, but are a little big.

Interesting opinions. That siver and blue looks nice. Do you really need to lower the car for the complete look?

you don't NEED to, but it'll fill up the wheel wells much nicer IMO.

i'd go Purners as well...after seeing Rob's car at Tator's last year, they are definitely worth the price

when are you planning on getting these?? you better take a swing by when you get them! :2tu:

hey f355 I have my 545 HRE's off my car come by if you like and mount one on. I think 545's would be hot on your car

John Purners wheels are FAR superior. I just got a new set of 19 inch for far less than HRE, no middle men, and they are perfect. He can also mount new tires right there at a great savings and he road force balances with chrome weights. His 19 inch are 1 piece and very strong!!

Is there any way to get these (the 505A) in a different finish?

But "D " I dont think I am selling them .But you could always put them on your car to see if you like the style of the 545. I think I am going to have the ACR rims for the track and the 545 for the street.( lol with us cruising maybe the Acr's should be for the street :) )
