Trust me, wheels play a major role in the whole overall look of the car and it's very easy to screw up with wrong set of wheels.They can make or break the looks of the car. You can install a nice set of forged wheels on a bucket and it could look killer ,and at same time you can have tons of work on nice car and install a set of off the shelf billet wheels,it just doesn't compliment all the hard work in body & paint. A set of Forgelines,NewGens,e.t.c. with satin black centers,brushed bronze or gunmetal outer barrels would set this car off .But that's just my opinion. Your work looks very nice,I just think these wheels don't belong on this car.

I totally agree, unfortunately when you are building a car for a customer, you have to ultimately use the wheels that they choose. Trust me these weren't the owners first choice or mine. These were a long way from the 15" Cragers that he wanted. After many, many attempts at talking him into a nicer wheel, we settled in the middle with these. Was there other choices that would look better, absolutely. Do these look good...for sure.
