| I am looking for opinions here. So I have made it a poll. I was thinking of cleaning up the wheels and painting them gloss black, and polish the caps, or just keep the full covers on. I like it either way. What does everyone think?    |

| I like the N97's (voted)
Just had mine powder black gloss for caps & trim rings (might remove rings for the winter)
Only 2nd thought I had was maybe gunmetal would look better, I always liked that corvette look. | |

| I say hubcaps for the winter beater. At least the center caps wouldn't get screwed up. | |

I agree, it just doesn't have that mean look the N97s give it. I would use those before the snow/salt comes, then switch to caps. Unless theyre not that great anyway, in that case just run them year round. | |

| Trade me the n97's for a set of actual "old school" wheels and then you can ride in style  | |

lol N97s with trim rings is really cool though. That's what I want to do on the 93 civi I have. I'll probably just try to mimic the look with some kind of center that actually will stick on these wheels, then dig up trim rings from somewhere. | |

Oh, wait till you see my 8" wide ones i'm working on. * Are they done? - Did you ever post pics? - Please do, if you have not posted them yet. I really want to widen two fronts @ 8.5" and two @ 9.5 for the rears. It would be most DELUXE if trim rings from OEM 7" Vette Ralleys fit the fronts and rings from the 8"ers fit the rears. - | |

| Lol. Talk about bumping old threads. I believe the white car is now pink, the trim rings are sold out at benny's, and I may have seen those wheels today on my northern adventure. I may be wrong, but they looked like 8's to me. | |
