lots of wheel choices

instead of posting 10 different pics of seperate wheels, i just combined all 10 into one pic.

what do you think of them?

i have my favorites, and some that i really dislike. I just want to see what other people think.

please let me know which ones you like/dislike and why.

For your car I would say the 9 or 10, personally I like the wheels that Blue502 has here is the pic in a post below this one polished Iroc Wheels.

i really like those polished iroc's, they just arent what i was looking for. i really like the looks of classic 5 spokes, as well as the "double" five spokes, like the Z06 rim.

1,7,9 and for some reason, #8 is looking cool, but I don't think it's right for your car.

My favorite of those three is naughty #9.

wow, a lot of people like number 9 a lot!

9 is also the only one not made by any of the billet wheel companies. and its a ton cheaper then any of the others.

its not of bad quality at all. its still a billet aluminum wheel, its just a little heavier then the others. its just not made by boyd, budnick, boze, or any other "higher" end wheel company....which is fine with me in the end.

3 and 10...

only 1 if your a fan of the 00' vette wheel. 10 would be really unique and one of a kind where as 3 is still unique but a basic 5 star with a slight custom twist.

the best custom wheels are the ones that are custom enough to draw attention yet clean and classic enough that almost everyone can like them. i'm sure anyone you go with will be ok, just depends on the budget mostly.
