Need Your Opinion

I am going to look at a couple sets of wheels this weekend and would like to know which ones you would choose.

These are for a 68 chevy 4X4 that I plan on putting 33's on.

Option 1: 6 lug 15 X 8 Ralley wheels with trim rings and center caps.

OR

Option 2: 6 lug 15 X 8 aluminum slots

Thanks in advance for your input

Jason

Ralleys , when you have it down to a few choices it starts to get very hard to make a final decision.

Heck...just put two ralleys on the driver's side, and two slots on the pass. side.
That way they won't look mismatched....and who can look at both sides at once, anyway?!?!?!?!

No matter what you choose make sure that they are straight!! I really got burned on the last set of ralleys that I bought. All 4 looked really nice but only 1 was useable, anyone know if they can be straightened? Oh and for personal preference I vote for the 10" rims as well.
