I'll take the classic BBS 3-pc wheels off a GTP car in silver/gold, with a side of turbine brake cooling for the front:

Didn't something similar come stock on some 80s Camaros. Had a gold hue to them.

It does not get any more '80s than Revolution RFXs on an MR2.

Maybe RFXs on a Jetta, but that's about it.

In reply to JG Pasterjak:

I think RFX's on a 2nd gen Prelude would rock the boat, too. The good thing is that I have six of the wheels and the car. The bad thing is that the wheels are 13 inchers and there is a dearth of performance tires in that diameter.

Here's the old black Celica with the black w/ blue rim 16x8 RP01 Special Editions.

SO GOOD.

Also: Gottis FOR SURE. And R9s.

Funny those would fit my Nissan nice probably, depending on offset, even as 16s.

Probably more retro 60's or 70's, but I've always been very partial to the Minilite/Panasport look. These wheels are actually aftermarket Shelby's pulled off a Sunbeam Tiger. Unfortunately its getting harder to find performance tires for 13 x 6 or 13 x 7 rims, so eventually I'll likely have to upgrade to 15" rims.

Here you can see the 13 x 7 Panasports on the wife's green car.

I'm a fan of the Minilite/Panasport too. I have Minilites on the 'street' Jensen:

and a set of XXR 813's on the race car. I consider them more of a 70's design, though.
