Looks good Justin. That color of wheel works great with the color of the car.

We are finalizing the cap. It will be a flat cap, to match the race like design. I don't mind the way they look without a cap though either.
Forgive me if this is a stupid question. When you say flat cap do you mean a smooth cap like a forgeline/kinesis or a raised flat cap more like a rushforth, or something completely different? Is the cap in "fat bottom camaro"'s rendering similar to what your coming up with?
You guy really nailed it with this design

Very valid question. We are working with New Gen to develop a cap similar to something you would see on a Forgeline or Kinesis wheel. A domed cap just does not look right on the wheel.

Justin, home run dude---you can certainly pick em, although you do know the right people! That thing, looking like that, with all the power, better be at EL Toro running the event---You gotta bring it.

We will be there! Unfortunately for me, the wheels did not improve my driving skills.
