Wheels!!....which one? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

agent orange · 03-20-2008, 01:09 AM

Im considering of getting these rims in a few weeks, but which do you guys prefer? The first is all polished and the sceond is painted w/polished lip....same price for both. Or do you guys like them at all?

bad6772 · 03-20-2008, 01:19 AM

me i dig the first one ...its gives the wheels a bit of depth makes them look thicker....what ones are you diggin

redrat · 03-20-2008, 01:22 AM

i like them both but the first one (all polished) is my pick. i think it has alot to do with what look your going for. what sizes are you thinking ?

sjarrett71 · 03-20-2008, 01:24 AM

I like the first ones (shiny ones). The painted ones look like something from the 80's.

slug · 03-20-2008, 01:26 AM

I'd Go W/the Pollished

jchav62 · 03-20-2008, 01:27 AM

I think they both look bada$$... What's wrong with the rallys you have now. I think they are just as cool...

1LoC10 · 03-20-2008, 01:28 AM

is that a real pic of the painted ones? i like painted better, but only if it has that center cap area like the one above

Mr79C10 · 03-20-2008, 01:37 AM

Hmmmm, If you get new ones,, That means you might sell those rallys then?

boatpuller · 03-20-2008, 02:17 AM

number 1. for sure........... there's just something abut the second one.

Outfoxed · 03-20-2008, 02:32 AM

I'd go with the 1st choice.

j.files · 03-20-2008, 02:37 AM

I would go with the second wheel just to be different and keep from the traditional Weld Pro star and cragar drag star look.

agent orange · 03-20-2008, 02:38 AM

Thanks guys...Yeah the first one were my first choice. Im going with 17", but im still keeping my rallys....is $139 bucks each good price?

1LoC10 · 03-20-2008, 02:54 AM

for 17's yeah thats an ok price

streetstar · 03-20-2008, 04:13 AM

1st one --- it looks like the old Drag Star wheels (which i love) that are hard to find in a 5 on 5

8T3GMC · 03-20-2008, 06:39 AM

the first ones were almost what I got til I found TT2's for a low price with every thing. But what are they going on. is it the orange truck.

**N2TRUX** · 03-20-2008, 08:18 AM

I would go with the 2nd one....in 20".....

jchav62 · 03-20-2008, 06:40 PM

That price ain't bad at all...

spr85gmc · 03-20-2008, 08:51 PM

im really digging the 1st ones also i was thingin about getting a set when they 1st came out 795 for 18's but i thing the offset would make them tuck like crazy in the back.

69BBsuburban · 03-20-2008, 09:01 PM

Both are ugly.....

boxrodz · 03-22-2008, 09:45 AM

I wonder if it's possible to powdercoat the polished wheel with a orange-tinted clear coat?. Kinda like a candy paint treatment.

boxrodz · 03-23-2008, 09:03 AM

One last variation ...

BrooKLyn · 03-23-2008, 11:16 AM

first one

ChaseDale3and8 · 03-23-2008, 06:21 PM

I'd have to pick the first one. The one with the body color powdercoat would look good as well if you could get it done that way, but the polished one looks the best I think. ...Joe

draggin86 · 03-25-2008, 07:37 AM

second by far
