Which wheel looks better?

I've always liked the 85-87 16" Iroc wheels, so i was playing around with the Paint program and drew in black stripes in the center of each spoke...which look is better, the stock look or the black stripe on each spoke?

I think IF you want the black stripe, then you should match the area between the 5 spokes as well.

But I think a polished rim would look best.

neither of them

i got the same rims and i met a guy in Vic that had after market 18" chrome ones that appear exactly the same but are 2" bigger. They look so sweet I almost wish I didnt by my 17" limiteds.

I don't like paint on my rims either. Go either polished or chrome.

Bigger size

well, i wish i could get the same exact looking wheel except an 18 or 19 inch size...i think that would look awsome...maybe someone has a pic of a very similar or the same style thats a larger size than the stock 16" (i don't think the 85-87 style was offered in 17", only 16)
