BFG KDW originals
Michelin Pilot sports
Nittos
Goodyear Eagles

I am sure the 295s help as well compared to 275s

On pewter, would you go polished, black or chrome c5 z06 ? The only thing affecting my decision here is price.

**bene** · 10-22-2007, 05:32 PM

Chrome all the way.

Polished looks the best, but is very high maintenance.

Not a fan of black wheels on pewter at all.

Chrome is a happy medium.

What is the hard part about cleansing polished? I really want chrome or polished, but I'm limited on funds for wheels. Most of the ones on ebay have rivets which I really don't want.

What about these bad boys? anyone have them on their car ?

I spend about 10 times the amount of time maintaining my polished wheels versus chrome wheels. If you don't mind the extra time/dedication it takes to maintain polished, pursue polished wheels.

Right now I can get 4 chrome 18X9.5's for 665 delivered. Is that a good deal? I honestly don't know a lot about wheels/prices.

Thats a good deal, I would move on it

**camarojunky74** · 10-22-2007, 08:36 PM

dude i have polished wheels on my 02 and my 74 , let me tell you its not for the faint of heart, they are to say the least a bitch,
like you cant get your car washed at a car wash cause they might ruin them, or you cant use just any cleaner, or at least 2 times a year you really have to polish the shit out of them.

they look best for a reason, cause theyre hard as hell to maintain,

but to me its totally worth it, also if i was you i would get the 10.5 in the rear or 11, you will regret it later if you dont, if you do you can run bigger tires on the back which look sick and hook better,

i got my wheels with new toyo t1r tires for 1200 bucks, new, i thought that was a good deal, thats about what you will have to pay to get polished in that size with decent tires

**Doom** · 10-22-2007, 09:29 PM

The problem is i can't really find what i want for under 700 in 18X10.5 style. I really want to avoid rivets on the wheels. I don't want to get tires yet, just the wheels. I Only have 4g's to play around with, and that includes payments and insurance.
