Default opinions on wheels 69 Torino

Hi all, kinda new here and I'm looking at some Rushforth wheels. I know they are popular so I'm looking for you input.
I like both the Livewire and SuperSpokes and I'm leaning toward the brushed and cleared centers with polished hoops but have considered the titanium coated centers as well. I think black and gunmetal are too dark for my tastes. Just looking for opinions, thanks !
here is a pic of my car:

I think the SuperSpokes with a brushed center would look bad ass. Give me call if you have questions.

Agreed, they look killer on this Chevelle, thanks for responding Justin.

Agree with justin. Brushed super spokes would look killer on that car.

I like both designs, but am kind of leaning on the side of the Livewires with a brushed center. Either way you can not go wrong. Nice looking car!

I agree with Eric on this. Your car has 'squareish' lines to it and I think the !st ones would fit in with that.

Sizes i will comment on all day. And that thing is screamin for 18s / 19s. I think 18s on the rear will look to small.

And I will go out on a limp and say were it mine I would do a colored center also. Expecially if the black viynl top is staying

When you say colored, you referring to black or titanium?

18's on the rear, 17's will stay up front. 18/19 or 19/20 puts me way over budget because I'm going with 18x12's with 335's those are enough as is.
I do think that 18/19's would look good.

edit: not way over budget, checking out pricing on 18/19's now, looks like Nitto has a 335 30 19 that is priced pretty good.
