Ok, Help Me Choose (wheels)

I have started 2 threads about different wheels. I have 2 wheels I am looking at. Both are American Racing Chrome 17X8 with 5.5 backspace.

Number 1


Number 2

Wow, they are both really nice rims.

I think I would go with number 2.

I would go with #2. A buddy of mine has the 17X8 Fuels (#1) on his Z71 and I personallt think that they look like crap in person. The chrome finish is extremely wavey. But maybe they will look better on a Ford than a Chev.

I'd have to say number 2. Number 1 looks to darn ghetto to me.

I think I like #2 better also. I am wondering if that center cap can be switched out. I think a solid chrome would look better. After seeing the #1 wheel on a truck here in the forums I thought twice about putting them on my truck.

Keep em coming guys.....

I thought the same thing when I saw those pics.

#2 looks like the Moto 951
