Centerline opinions

[MYOBYDAVE]

Shopping for rims centerline 2 piece aluminum
Going with 17x8 x 4-1/2 back space up front and rear
The mesh rims to me is more muscle
The solid rims to me is more sleek/sexy
Let me know what you guys think
Wish I could fit the 17x9.5 x 4-1/2 backspace for the rear but I would have to cut the rear lip to fit em

Only 2 choices?
I personally think 5 spoked style wheels look best on a Gbody but based on your selections I would say the Centerline Lazer or "mesh" style looks better and a little more different but I really think it needs more "mesh" to fill in the open area when you are upsizing.
And it not that I don't like the Centerline GN or "solid" one but it seems very dated to me and reminds me of all the other old 80's Centerline billet series wheels with that bolt on lug nut cover and might look more at home on a Regal/GN
As always it is your car so buy whatever style you like.

honestly! I like both but I would do the second pic in at least a 18in wheel size as said before it's your ride.... 20's rear 18's front imo..... :wink:

I think the first ones look awful and the second ones look less awful. 5 spoke wheels look the best on a G-body IMO.

I like centerline wheels, have 15" centerlines on mine. The second wheel is better imo. Also I would go with a 4 inch backspace.

I have billet rim on 1 of my cutlass and the center caps wouldn't go on the front wheels when I did get it on it fell off eventually keep that in mind those things are not cheap either

What the heck does that have to do with anything? :?

Here's a few others that might look good IMO. I agree with what 565bbchevy said about Centerlines looking outdated. I think the best suited wheels for a Cutlass are anything that resembles SSII's. Maybe it's just me but I think it's hard to find a good wheel for a Cutlass.

Rev 106. I think these look good in 15's but not sure if the 17's would have the 2nd lip.

I agree that the only thing that looks good on a Cutlass are SSIII similar type wheels. I have the below Centerlines in 17x8" on the silver car:

I am getting another set for the '83 Hurst in the same size. I really like them.
