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) ? |

Personally I like the look of black center classics on a black car, just personal preference. But how do U mean three piece wheels are a pain ?

So do I, but I just like the outers/lip to be black (or comp gray) as well, not polished/chrome. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) The initial torquing of all of those bolts, and then the periodic re-torquing/checking of them (depending on how stressed they get from hard use/bad roads, etc.), cannot be fun times! I believe the seals between the sections also have to be replaced periodically, on a schedule as well?? This post has been edited by dailydriver: Apr 26 2012, 10:21 PM |
