Now I have a problem! Well more then the obvious ;)

So I just see these new wheels and they remind me of the old Crager SS wheels of yester-year. So now I have a problem, I love the old Cragers but I have a sedan and I don't know if these would look good or not. Anyway on to the pics. These are the wheels...


Heres my car...


And heres what my first picked wheels were that are still on the table.


So wheel #1 or wheel #2?

I think the first wheel would look better on your car. The second one looks like it should be on an ss/sc or ss.

Personally I think no contest.... wheel #1 I think wheel 2 is just a little too busy. Wheel 1 is going to be a similar fit with the stock cuz its the plain simple 5 spoke design. and It will show off those rotors and painted calipers.

Definitely the 1st one

Oh a photo shop would be AWESOME so I could see which ones looked best! Anyone? Anyone at all?

I haven't seen anyone with either set on here, but I've been wrong before But yeah I love them too thats why my problem. The first are classic American style and the second are more Euro styled which on the sedan would look DAMN GOOD!

Now if I had a coupe I'd be getting the first ones and doing racing stripes.

If you really can't decide, just get two of each!

I almost bought the 2nd ones (Gravana J2 mesh) for my white 2.4SS, but I bought 18" Enkei WDMs.........which are already being replaced with custom drilled 19" Axis Hiros. I'm a wheel *****! lol

But yeah, I know you already decided, but i'd go with the 2nd ones just b/c they are designed with our cars in mind, as they are by Gravana, but the other ones will work just fine too!
