    Anymore thoughts on your wheels? How about the OM Simmons? I do like those ones you had photo shopped, they look awesome on the Big Red Camaro if you know the car.

    I think all those holes might make it look like there is a bit to much going on IMO, and think just a conventional one highly polished would suit much better  :good:

    Didnt realize  they went that big now but i still prefer  the forgelines  i just like the track car stance they give as opposed  to the oms  more of a show street  wheel  the forgelines  are also a bit lighter simmons have allways  been a heavy wheel but thanks for the link i think ive sold myself  on the forgelines  tho

    All good mate, just some suggestions. The Forgelines do look real tough/racy as you say, i reckon a set on the SL/E with silver centres would look good. Interested to see how they look on a commodore. Any idea on when you’ll have them?
