    I wouldn't say riced but I don't think it matches the car. It would on other colors but no SOM. You'll be spending some serious time cleaning them too. A friend of mine at Ferris has an EVO with white rims and he was wiping them down almost every time he drove the car due to road grime and brake dust.

      I dont think rice but I defiantly do not think it looks good on your car. I think your car screams Chrome wheels...

        Yeah, I think I'll wait a few years to change anything up appearance wise...until i can afford some firehawk wheels or CCW's. It'll be in sleeper trim later this year, though the cam will be a dead giveaway.

          Firehawk wheels would look really good on your car. That would be a nice pick up IMO

            Yeah, I don't think the white rims will match the color of the car.

            I'm with Darren - chrome.

              Firehawk wheels, firehawk hood, TA bumpers and hatch, then it'd be the only hard-top 4th gen. T/A. I looked up numbers yesterday and there were 44 formulas this color in 1998 and 21 T/A's

                Agreed with everyone else. White on that color is not so hot looking.

                Chrome or black w/chrome lip!

                  You're ruining the whole appeal of a having a Formula man. Trade me cars if you just want a TA! lol

                      Not rice... but it looks dumb.

                      Those wheels suck to begin with, Black wheels on an SOM would be sweet.


                      but it sure seems like youre heading for a firehawk clone, with the wheels, and hood.

                      Please don't... Clones suck.


                      Just be yourself. You're beautiful the way you are.

                        I hate how LS1Tech and other sites ruined the word "rice" to the point that no one knows how to use it anymore.


                        Rice? No. Gaudy, yes.

                          lol...agree with everyone.

                          Wait, and I'd leave your car the way it is besides the rims.

                            Thanks Trevor...I'm not going to be doing anything appearancewise with it for a while now: Go is coming before show. I'll probably just end up with firehawk wheels and maybe an LS9 hood, I really don't like my flat beak.

                              Well I almost made my car a full clone and i decided that, idk... its just something special...

                              But, id leave the formy bumper, i really like it, I want one.

                              Im guessing you meant the WS9 hood. which is an excellent choice.

                              I always have been thinking about selling my hood and getting a WS9 Outlaw Hood.

                              Firehawk is so un-aggressive... and when you tell people you have a fireHAWK hood. they're like fireBIRD? and five minutes later, i want to bash my head into a wall.... NO fireHAWK
