Can we vote in between? I want painted smoothies with chrome smoothie center caps.

I've always been a fan of chrome wheels. It looks more old school "fixed up". To me the wheels in the first picture just look like old truck wheels.

After! Smoothies are tha bomb.

What can I say,I bought the chrome smoothies with moons my self

protrash64 · 07-11-2010, 07:38 PM

Too much black...they dont stand out. The chrome looks cool to me.

**jocko** · 07-11-2010, 09:04 PM

i'd have to say the chrome smoothies - and, sorry, but I like them without center caps... but that's just me. I think the flat black and chrome reverse look just goes together. Maybe I watched Two-Lane Blacktop too many times as a kid...

bikes&bowties · 07-11-2010, 10:30 PM

definately need taller tires and think im gonna go with a white wall! but the tires that are on the smoothies have 85-90% tread on them so gonna drive them for a bit.

i do like the black and chrome look also ! was goona do black painted smoothies whith chrome caps and trim rings but also like the all chrome (undecided still)

P_A · 07-11-2010, 11:25 PM

I like the chrome. Leave the caps off and get taller black wall tires and it will be perfect!

**ChiefRocka** · 07-11-2010, 11:44 PM

I like the look of a stock painted wheel ... You could take the 'before' wheels and paint them the color of the roof .

Kinda like this, some color match, my dash and engine parts were red:

Before pic was so dark I couldn't see the wheels... I lightened it up a bit.

Your new chrome reverse are definately much better, IMHO. With some bigger rubber it would really rock.
