YES! thanks thats the one!! i think those would set it off nicely!
since the replacement of that tie rod, YES the handling difference is much better (but i replaced a ton of other stuff too)
and the rims.. some Drag company.. dunno.. got em at a great price off of some kid at school that bought em for his car a while back and got new ones..

It has come a long way and really looks great Jerry. I have been trying to pick out a set of rims and I dont know just what size will fit in the rear. Are you using the stock struts and springs?

Hey, Jerry Jaloppy! BB's really lookin' good. I just woke up from a 3 month hibernation and was reviewing your progress. Those new wheels really update your ride. They just happen to fit the Fiero? Lucky you! You are an inspiration to all of us who "fear" of something going wrong... you just announce it and go about getting it working again and most of the time making it better than new. Looking forward to seeing you and Betty come summer.
