I am leaning towards the brushed/cleared centers with polished lips. With my dark grey color I have seen a few grey wheels on them and they seem to get "lost".

Black maybe and real dark gray I'll agree with you but the beauty of smoked titanium is it's more what I like to call a "tinted clear" because you still see the grain of the aluminum unlike a straight colored p/c.

Believe me,pictures do not capture the beauty of this look,try to arrange to see this finish in person and see what you think.

I personally think it would be the perfect finish for your car,regardless of which Rushforth wheel you choose...

I like 18 / 19. I like the 1" of tire and wheels stagger. And I like that particular wheel in the brushed look

On pricing, as offered in the post, I cannot do 15% off the sheet I use. When you get ready to buy, run what pricing you are offered by us. Make sure the 15% offer is comming off the same price sheet that we are offering 10%. If it is, that is a deal we won't touch!

Serious? The guys at Paradise are stand up guys. If they are offering 15% off retail, they are giving you 15% off retail.

Thanks everyone who helped me out in this thread! I ordered up the wheels from Jim at Paradise and he gave me a deal I could not refuse! I ended up going with the 18/19 combo. The finish is brushed/cleared centers with polished lips. Hope to see them in 4-6 weeks!

Sounds great,you'll be real happy with the 18/19 setup.
Don't forget to have the hoops cleared as well if you haven't planned for it yet,you'll thank me for that later...

Congrats, man.

Does this mean you will let me test-fit them on my car?
