So I'm gonna purchase some used wheels and I'm torn between a set of
18" forgelines http://www.forgeline.com/products/performa...18inch-only.htm or 17"CCW classics http://www.ccwheel.com/wheelprofiles-display.php?id=Classic I plan on ordering inner barrels and converting the whole set of wheels to 11" wide so widths don't really matter. So basically, my question is which size wheel would you guys go with the 18's or the 17's? Forgelines or the CCW's ? Prices are about the same. . . Help me out guys, is there a clear winner (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif) ? |

Could you get either of those styles (or anything even close to them) in a ONE piece wheel.
That is what I would do, as has been stated, 3 piece setups can be a MAJOR pain, especially on the street. The only real advantage being; if you mangle an outer it can be replaced without dumping the whole wheel. I also cannot stand polished/chrome outers/lips on ANY wheel (can you get them; painted/powder coated/anodised the same as the centers??). I like the HRE Monoblocks in matte black, or gunmetal, but I DO NOT like the price tag of them being 3-4 times the worth/book value of my car!!
