I would suggest that you try out some American Racing Torq-Thrust 2'*, they look nice. You can get them either chromed, or a charcoal finish.

Hrm.... aftermarket rims for a 87-91.......

I had a really hard time picking out a style that would work for my 97.... but I couldn't imagine anything but stock on my 91....

It would really help if you could post a few pics of your ride.

Silver/Chrome always go well the Black. But lets see some pics of your ride first

no problems... I´ll take some pics later today, when the camera gets home
Thinking of a RADIUS 17" rim, silver colour, looks ok i guess!
Its a flat wheel, with 20 or so spokes, 225/45/17"

Anyone know what ET the original rims are?

I agree with Merlin 91/97, nothing but the stock SSE wheels for me. I doubt I could ever find a wheel that looked as good on the car, as those. Not to mention they look stock [because they are], so it makes the car look unmodified.

I saw one here in town about a year ago, it was a late 80s/ early 90s black SSE with 18-20 inch gold rims on it, it looked sharp as hell, probly the most attractive bonny in that body style i have ever seen
