Just when I thought you were cool, you go and say something like this...:rofl:

But John does make a great point...its all about the car, color etc.
A perfect example is Kennys camaro. That car looked so smooth and classy with the one offs by Rushforth. When he changed them up to the brushed Rated X's, it gave the car a whole new bad-ass attitude.

John, Rushforth had me going for a second. There’s a yellow Camaro w/ black Rated-X on their site, I thought you swapped wheels for a sec....

Chris,

LOL...that's Ernesto's car man,same color (imagine two '69 Camaro's both painted the same Millenium yellow?:rolleyes: ) but no disrespect meant to him,he ain't got the stance I got going on...:yes:

Besides,if I were to do Rated-X wheels,mine would be a flat dark grey w/polished hoops or all smoked titanium like I did on my Superspokes.:unibrow:

When would you like us to get started on those, John? Or will it be a set of Fuels for you this time? We know it's just a matter of time!! Impulse wheel shopper!

Since I designed the wheels, I'm partial to the hardware and think they'll really look great with your black centers and they just add a little shine to the dark centers and detail to the design but I know they aren't for everyone so that's why we make it an option. Either way, I can not wait to see them on that Mustang. That will look so MEAN and NASTY and those pics will go right up on our website!!

Oh, and John; Please never use the word "bling" in reference to our wheels!

You know I'd like to have a set of Fuels for the Camaro(s) Jay,especially since I had some input on what the final design should look like.I just didn't pull the trigger this time because I felt they would look too close to what I had going on with my Chevelle...and I like to have some different looks on each car.:yes: Someday soon,a possibility...yeah,maybe.:_paranoid ...you know me too well man.:unibrow:

I still think of gold chains and white-haired old men driving Ferrari's in South Beach whenever I see a fully polished wheel w/exposed hardware...ala the "bling factor".I do not like that look at all man...:rolleyes:

Well all I ever had was 15 & 17 inch TTII's and I was tired of that look so I wanted to be defferent and went with the hardware, 19 & 20's with brushed centers and polished lip. John I have to admit when I first saw your wheels I didn't like them but OMG they look like a million dollars on your car. They compliment each other very well. If you do get some for your 70 Camaro try black centered fuels with polished lip for a different look.

I thought of that combo too but they would look very close to the Bonspeeds I have on my 'Velle and I kinda don't want all my wheels to look the same...but I will consider the Fuel wheel for something,what I don't quite know yet,lol...:_paranoid
