This is what the Boze "Track" wheel looks like. I'd like to stick with 17's because of tire costs but there are also some other advantages to going to 18's like being able to use an ATS spindle.

Which one do you guy's think would look better?

I like the Forgline, but with hidden hardware. I hate cleaning wheels to start with, then adding the hardware :mad: nope.! Good luck! I'm with Todd, picking wheels is a bitch!

I edited my last post and put them side to side. Picking wheels is a huge bitch!!

Forgeline for sure over the Boze.

OK, so these are the four different wheels styles that I have been looking at. Right now I'm thinking chrome outer with powder coated silver center. The Boze isn't a bad looking wheel and the EV3RS isn't bad but might be a little to busy looking. The GA3R isn't the greatest looking wheel but is supposively the lightest Forgeline carries. The WC3R is sort of a mesh style but I think too many others are using it and I'd like to try something different.

Which wheel would you guy's choose from this line up?

Honestly, I like them all! Really depends on the look you want. The top wheel will give you more of a timeless/classic race car feel...I like that. The bottom one is probably my second choice. I would only do blind harware and consider what spoke/center section gives you a deeper dish. Also, how much weight does chrome outer hoops add? Are you using wheel spacers right now?

The top one is definitely a great looking wheel. Just seems like alot of people are running it. I never considered the outer chrome adding weight and will have to discuss that with wheel manufacturer and appreciate you bringing that up. I was using spacers with the Vette wheels and the car handled terribly and I'm pretty sure the spacers were to blame so I sold the Vette wheels and am currently rolling around on a borrowed set of wheels from a buddy of mine.

I just talked to Forgeline and it looks like the EV3R has been discontinued so I can cross that one off my list.

The Track wheel will look larger than the other two in the 17" sizing and is a great looking choice. I could see it working in a silver-medium dark silver w/ pollished lip. Don't go too dark or it wont look right. Now if you didn't have the white stripes that would be a differant story. Isn't this fun!? :lol: :cheers:

on your car GOLD or BRONZE centers with polished lips would look amazing! i like the first 2 forgeline designs.
