Go with 2 if you wanna do something different (I like it more), but if you want a solid look that has stood the test of time then go with 1. Personally I would pick whichever rim gives you the most "depth"... did that make sense?

I guess I meant what wheels look widest. Having a flush face (no lip) i think only works if its a wheel like #2. Go for it, should look nice...

ahh.....ya I know what you mean

I want wide wheels (8.5 and 9 or 9.5), and I agree with you. The 2nd set should not have a lip (and I don't think they do)


I'm just gonna get reps off ebay for like $500-$600. They seem leggit, any insight?

Good call. Unfortunately I can't give you too much insight. If you're iffy about the ebay wheels try tirerack or Euroteck for their specials... hope that helps man.

Shivi- I think option 2 looks awesome. Especially with white and lowered. I almost went with those on my wagon.

Not saying option 1 is bad, you ultimately gotta make yourself happy so go with what speaks to you more.

ahh I'll never be 100% happy

but at first I wanted mesh rims, then I didn't, and now I do again....so for now I'm leaning toward #2......but idk if I can take the plunge and buy 'em

I think I'm gonna get Depo's ('till I can afford Bi-Xi) and a set of reps. ('till I can afford something nice)

Did you ever order the pinstripe from that one company?

I have a vinyl guy that is part of SinCityEuros car club with out here.
He's supposed to bring by his swatch book at our next gtg (Sunday i believe).
Hopefully he'll have a color that will most match the Pewter color.
I'll let you know if we find a close enough match... hopefully!
