I think both centers would look good as long as there polished lips not black.

If I go polished lip, it almost seems like I have to go with silver just because of the contrast between polished and black.

I think I may be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Print out the wheels and go stare at your car and slam a sixxer and we'll talk in the morning.

I'm starting to like the brushed center / polished hoop deal for your car.

Here are the GA3R's on a marina blue car with white stripes. Looks great in person.

Seriously Bro!! I'm starting to get a head acke. This is killing me!! I told the guy at Wheel Works I'd call him back in an hour with a decision and now I'm stuck again.

Going with a polished lip and silver center swings me over to the WC3R's.
I'm going to call him back and tell him I'll have a decision for him Monday.

Have to work tomorrow but I'll try and get a hold of you on Sunday.

Dave, thanks for those pics. The GA3R's with polished hoop and silver center looks pretty damn decent!!

Only now my heads really hurtin'.

I think I'm going to go to Kinko's and get some real size photos and tape them to my car.

Dude, I"m telling you, take a week, two weeks, three weeks to figure it out. A wheel choice is a MAJOR decision. You aren't going to change them once they are done. Look at your car, envision the outcome. I'd forget what everbody has to say at pick your favorite wheel design, then figure out what finishes you want.

I have Blue Balz in my garage tonight.

The all black wheels look good on Gonzo's car. Not sure about yours.....

I think any of Forgline's stepped style would look great. JMO I would pick these.

I also think your car would look nice and gritty with CCW Classic's

Tom, those are exactly the wheels I liked after looking at the site.

Thanks Tom, those are definitely one of the top looking wheels and the same one's Todd is running. CCW makes some nice wheels and I went back to their site after D.G. mentioned it and Forgeline definitely has the better choices IMO.

If the Boze made a 10.5 in the Track wheel it would have been a no brainer for me. I talked to Zak, discussed the wheel width issue, and he gave me a great price. I have very limited room in the rear for a wide tire and decided I didn't want to deal with an 11" rim in the rear when I knew for a fact the 10.5's worked.

These are the Forgeline wheels I would have went with but they have been discontinued.

Gonna have to go back to the Blue Balz project and check it out. Your are probably right, Wheel Works told me the lead time for Forgelines is typically 3-4 weeks. Dont know why I'm in such a hurry. My next track day probably wont be until May so maybe it's time to take a chill pill.

My honest personal opinion, the polished Torque Thrusts, although out dated and on my car for 10 years, looked pretty good. With those wheels on the car for so long it was hard to see a different wheel on it. I liked the look of the Vette wheels also, which tends to steer me to look for a similar style.
