I really like bronze rims, especially on the subaru blue color, black is nice as well.

You already know my opinion on them 
Have you decided what you're going with for the adaptors?

They arent bad, but your bbs wheels looked about 10 times better imho. Your car, your choice though.

Fair enough. Ive always liked 5 spoke wheels, and im curious how a bronze wheel on a black car will look.
Also the BBS wheels weighed in at 25.9 lbs a wheel without a tire. In an 18x8 wheel.
The TSW's, well they are 18x8 and weigh 19 lbs a wheel... Much better number.
Basically wanted to get a lighter wheel.

I like 5 spokes too, but dont see aleros as a car that goes well with them. Especially if you are doing any racing I fully get the weight aspect.

When I finally get rims they will be 5 spoke, fits the alero very nicely. I will withhold any further comments until I see them on the car. Let us know on what you think of the quality of those TSW's. They are what I've been looking at as well.

I think those will look good on your car. IMO, bronze wheels only look good on three colors: White, Blue, and Black.

I agree strydr. and good to see you here! Very rare you come around. Nice to see the older fellas who had the nice builds back in the day still stop by frequently.
Also, yeah i do some racing. 26 lb wheels are just a little rediculous on a car thats built/being built for speed. I think i made the right choice though. I have been very curious to see how bronze on black will look with the alero, i am quite excited to be honest.

I still browse the forums almost daily but I don't post that much. Never really been much for posting/replying unless I have something worthwhile to contribute.
I got MY first real start modding vehicles once I was a member on here when it was on the old forums (my old account was lost during migration. )
You're right though, there had been some nice builds happen on here. I have also made a couple good friends through here.

Indeed! on a side note- as soon as things warm up I still plan on coming to get the suspension. I feel like I'm driving a squeaky boat right now

Those look nice! I've contemplated them for my Cutlass for a long long time. Just too pricey for me.
