I'm looking at two wheels that I really currently like. Previously I had it set that I was going to go with the REV classic 100 chrome wheels by REV Wheels. After thinking and thinking about it I might have changed my mind becuase I want to go with something a little more original. Everyone has the TTII type wheels on their g-body. So I also have thought about the American Racing chrome NOVA wheels.

Here are pics of both:

American Racing NOVA chrome wheels:

Which ones should I go with?
 
I like the second one.
 
Anyone else want to chime in with their opinion?
 
Imo completely chrome wheels look tacky. Chrome looks best when applied sparingly, or as an accent to add depth, such as on a lip or on the edges. But what do I know, I'm only going to school for car design.. 8)

I like these better than those nova's you showed

Then again its your car and in the end its totally up to you.
 
I like that wheel more so than the other wheels shown in the links above.. Chrome is "out to lunch" as far as I'm concerned.
I like a wheel that's almost period correct looking. Some of these flashy wheels don't look right on a G-body...just my opinion.
But whatever floats your boat.
 
Any thoughts on the Boyd Coddington J5R chrome wheels?
 
I think the Classics look alot better. Personally Im not a fan of Coddington's line or even Chip Foose's line for that matter. Some rims might look good by themselves but they need to match the car, like chevy, olds, pontiac, and buick rallies do :idea:
