What do you guys think of these wheels for my car?
 
I'm looking at these and could have them in 3 weeks if I want them. Boze Mesh
I would have these in a high polish and clearcoated. What do you guys think?

Wow, look look exactly like these:

You should call up forgeline and compare prices...

I think they would look great on your car. However I would go with a polished lip and a silver painted center. Given the bright color of your car I feel a slighly toned-down look on the wheel would be better. It would also "toughen up" the look of the car over an all polished wheel.

Just my .02 :)

Hey Steve I was thinking the same thing on the painted center matching the rally stripes on the car. I may enlist a buddy to photochop this for me and see what it might look like. The boze wheels are $2750 for what I want, and the Forgeline wheels are about 4k.

I was quoted $2750 for 4 18 inch wheels polished and clearcoated. This includes custom backspacing as well. That was for the 2 piece wheels, the 3 piece was $3350 or so. The only difference between the two was the 3 piece was a little lighter.

The true benefit of a three piece wheel is if there's ever damage then it can easily be fixed. Also, as in my case, it's easy to change the offset of the wheel by replacing one of the hoops.

As for the color you really should do the painted center. For one it's cheaper and it will also set you apart from the crowd (and look better).

You trusted me on paint color.. trust me now.. lol
