I like the KingPin wheel...but you know how I like my 5-spoke wheels...and I agree,that would look killer with a colored center section...
And john wasn't kidding about the killer pricing. And i was stupid enough to think i finally made up my mind

Nothing wrong with the Bonspeeds man. There are enough wheels out there to make your head spin But at the end of the day, you just have to trust your gut, and get what is "right" for the car, and what will make YOU happy.

The bonspeed delta is pretty similar to the dominator. I really need to make up my mind.

Yeah, the wheel choices are INSANE!!!! By the time I'm ready for wheels, I'm sure there's gonna be a ton of new wheels I'll like.

Jon, you are doing a kick as* job raising the bar with new wheels.

I have a idea for the Kingpins i just need a customer to buy a set.

Probably,lol.

Jon's right though,at the end of the day...you have to go with the wheel that you like the most,that you feel will look best on your car and won't break your budget doing it.

I like to narrow my choices down to three wheels (I usually know the "style" I'm looking for though) then tweak my pick until I'm satisfied with my decision.There may be some details I like as well if not better on the other two that didn't make the cut but when I lie my head on the pillow at night,I can feel I've done the right thing.

Then about 6 months later,I do it again...
