im getting ready to pull the plug on a set of rushfors.im thinking 20 in the rear and 19 in the front.My car will have brushed tailights,door handles gas cap ect.i love the brushed look just wonder if you guys think i need a polish lip to wake it up?I do prefer understateness if thats even a word .the car in question is a 68 camaro/wrx blue

That blue is plenty bright and should look fine with the brushed parts on it. I like consistancy...so for YOUR car I say brushed lips...I assume the window trim will be brushed as well? In my mind it is all or nothing.

On my car I went polished trim and wheel hoops...

I agree with Tony. Keep the look consistent on the outside of the car. If your trim is brushed I think the lip will look better brushed too.

there will be no trim,drips are cut off and i purchased a flush mount glass sytem from robert at classic auto innovations.the all brushed is sounding good.Any hints on what style?

Are you keeping the bumpers chrome or brushing them as well?

im definatly going rushford.im just asking about there different types.the rear bumper is very close in the back and will be body color/no front bumper on front/rs grille/marquez 69 lights molded in the front

Best bet is by polished set the wheel on the car and look at it. Then if you don't like it brush it to your hearts content.

Do you want a painted center section of the wheel?

This would look good with a darker center in the 19" and 20" sizing.

I'm stoked that you're set on our wheels and it's honestly flattering that you can't pick one so let me know if you'd like to see it on paper to help you decide on a style and a finish but if you'd like my $.02, I'm going with Tony's advice. Night Trains with everything brushed will look KILLER on a 69 Camaro in those sizes!
