69 Camaro
Is going to be painted flat black
I know I want the SO3 with a matte black center and titanium hardware but not sure on the lip. I see a lot with the brushed lip but I'm not too crazy about it. What do you guys think about a titanium or gunmetal lip with the matte blk center? Too dark?

I was also considering a red pinstripe. My calipers will be red.

Thanks,
Justin

so do I but do you think it will look too dark on a flat blk car? I don't want them to completely disappear...

I think if you have polished hardware it will help prevent that. I don't think it will be a problem. The titanium lip will help and the simple 5 spoke design also helps keep it from disappearing. I say go for it :yes:

Now I just need to decide on red stripe or not. I plan to have red emblems and calipers. Thought it might look cool...

I think that may be a little too busy. But its your car so you do what you think will look cool :cool:

yeah it might be a little much with the red stripe...here's the best example I could find of a red stripe but its on an all blk wheel...

There's also the brushed nickle that looks pretty nice. It's more expensive but might be worth it.

Any other opinions?

I ordered this wheel from Frank in a matte black face, gloss black lip, electric silver (chrome) stripe with the 3pc. bolts in stainless. Should hopefully have them in a few weeks and can not wait to see how they look! :unibrow:

I like the brushed nickle hoop. I think with the red calipers and emblems the red stripe would be too much. Black centers, brushed hoop, good to go.:thumbsup:

Thank you for all the input. Choosing the right wheels is a tough decision. I was going to go with something a lot cheaper but I figured I should just get what I really want now instead of buying 3 sets before I am happy. I'm leaning toward the matte blk center with the brushed nickle outer and the red pinstripe.

Any more opinions/pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Here are a few to look at. Rushforths and Forgeline. Both look killer.

Man oh man, what I wouldn't do for a set of forgelines. That brushed nickel is a cool option. I think it'll look good even without the pinstripe.

Well I made up my mind. I ordered the SO3 matte blk center, brushed nickle outer, red pinstripe, and titanium hardware. I was going to wait on the pinstripe but I know I will want it eventually so I went for it. They should look pretty sweet.

Thanks Frank for the killer deal.

Yeah, I think the matte black with the brushed nickel is going to be a sweet setup. The ti hardware is a great functional option. Do the Ti bolts look different than the normal ones?
