RE: Wheel Choices, what do you think?
For the Redfire (shown in your sig): To me that color seems to be more "elegant" or whatever and can support classier-looking bling, like the wheels in the first pic.
For me (Torch Red): I would be a little more hesitant with the wheels in the first pic and probably lean more towards the 5-spoke, like Cobra R replicas, but without the holes in the spokes (harder to clean).
As far as wheel size goes, I'm not much into the big wheels/no meat combo like with the 20's and prefer the 18's.
Anyway, all is JMO.
Take care.
<edit:> Actually, the stock fan blades on the car in your sig don't look bad at all. I have the fan blades on my Torch Red and I'm not even thinking about changing 'em. Usually, when something doesn't look "right" or "good" to me, I go on a hell-bent crusade looking for the "fix." Again, JMO.

My personal favorite is the first one, but on the redfire I think the 5 spoke looks better. Not sure why just IMO mesh style wheels look better on either black or very dark cars... or white or very light cars... not the middle ground. And yeah I agree with AM4.6, your car looks great with the fanblades.

lol, you don't think the chrome GT wheels will look bad *** on there? I like the fanblades but the chrome wheel is what I want. I am leading towards the first set. With the same height tire I have on mine now. Just 18x9 up front and 18x10 in the back.

If you like your fanblades but just want chrome, why not have your fanblades chromed?
Best of both worlds! Plus it truly would be unique... Ive never seen chrome fan blades before...
