There really is no comparison.... Rushforth is a FAR superior product.

While many times wheels come down to what you like as far as style... that is a different question and you asked about quality. Ask anyone that has a set of Rushforths and you'll get the same answer. Top notch #1 stuff.

I don't have Rushforth wheels, but I got to check them out on display and on a few cars at SEMA. I was VERY impressed with their brushed finish. I have this thing for brushed wheel centers, so I'm always looking at how different wheels compare. I have to say that the brushed finish on the Rushforth's is the best brushed finish that I've seen. Much better than the finish on my HRE's.

This is the answer I was hoping to get! Thanks for the help!

69 Camaro red coupe, white houndstooth, white ss stripe, with 18" Livewires all the way around.

Should I go all polished, or.......????

What would you do?
