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.

Glad you like them! Now that these are photographed in polished, I'm pretty sure I'm going to brush the face of the spokes, and leave the sides of the spoke, and the lug area polished. I think that will be the winner.

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...

Nice wheels. I like the KingPin wheel. Will you have these with exposed hardware?
