Nice but a bit pricey? There were some cragars last week for about $600 that looked really nostalgic, no tires though.

I just bought a set of the non-chromed version of these rims about a month ago for $300 delivered.
I wanted a set for dedicated snow tires and the price was right.
They had a few scuff marks around the lip, but look DAMN nice for my winter rims!

Nice rims swartlkk. I've also been looking for some rims for dedicated snow tires. I already have the 17 inch Perilli tires i just need the rims. Not to worried about the look of the rim, heck i'd be happy with plain old steel rims, but not sure if 17 inch steel even exsist for the bonneville. One guy quoted me at 800 for 4 brand new 5 spoke rims like on the Impalas. Guess i'll keep shopping around. Nice deal on the rims you grabbed though

Yeah. I couldn't believe the deal. It was an ebay auction, but I grabbed them through Buy It Now because it was too good of a price to pass up and they were guaranteed to be straight just had alittle curb rash on the lip and some scratches in the paint. None of which are very noticeable.

Gotta keep those chromies out of the snow and salt as long as possible. Also, living in Western NY, we get some pretty nasty snow storms. Now I can just jump into my 4x4 Ram, but it actually is cheaper to buy dedicated snow tires and run the bonnie than to drive the truck all the time (gas prices being the way they are and in the winter the Ram gets 13mpg).

Good Luck finding a set of rims!

My car came stock with these rims, and I now use them as winter rims. WAY to much work to keep clean. (Even with good brake pads)

They are great winter rims...just leave em dirty.

Exactly what I plan on doing. I may clean them up when I wash the car during the winter, but I'm not going to go through all the trouble I do on my chrome swoops now!

great find on the rims. i ran across a pontiac site that has the ssei stock chromes for 458.00 each. didn't know that these style rims were so much. but it also doesn't help that their stock wheels also. dealers always over price the rims as far as i'm concerned.
