Help Me Decide.

I've informed my investment advisor.......ok I begged my wife, that I will be droppin' a wad of benjamins on a new set of rims for the six-seven. I got the classic Marge Simpson groan/grunt, but not a vehement "hell-no!" I don't know bout ya'll but that there is a green light in my book. Now comes the fun part.....what to get? I have my faves shown below- give my your opinions on which looks best. Oh yeah- they'll be 20x8 and 20x10 w/ 4-4.5" BS

Re: Help Me Decide.

Since you got the "go for it" signal... and are asking for opinions, I like the first one. But actually all of them look pretty good.

Re: Help Me Decide.

Im a fan of the Vintec soft lip dish also. I found them for a tad over 600 each though........has anyone else found them cheaper?? That was for 22's by the way.

Re: Help Me Decide.

personally Im doing COYS for now unless plans change. I had a friend do up a few photoshop renderings today for me.I had a shot from today that was in the 20's thread,I sent it to him and he swapped the frts for 20s instead of the 17's and made a few color changes for me.I dont know whose truck it was but the picture made for easy photoshopping.
Base pic with 17/18 frt and 20 rear

Pics with frts swapped for 20's and colors added. The green was supposed to be metallic stock style green,and the other is gunmetal or graphite.




And for kicks a Anniversary style.

Re: Help Me Decide.

I know the first white truck is torque thrust II but I had him color the spokes to a COY C5 look.

Here is a cheesy version I did........which is why I had him do the others.

I know the examples shown run the gamut of prices, but I'm lookin' to spend about 3 large on this little "accessory"- so I figure I might be able to eek out the Billet Specialties or Intro's and pretty much be broke again. Or I could get Coy's or Boze's and have a couple nickels left over to work on some of the body mods I have planned.
