Giving serious thoughts to this rendering...

Alright, so we all saw my last rendering. Well with the Lexani's gone, that obviously won't happen. I'm leaning toward the forgestars, but would really like to do the 22"s. I'm going to SEMA this year, so i'm going to see if I can get my hand on a set. Here's the renderings i'm considering:

22" F14 bronze with a bronze center stripe on the car:



Standard matte black 22" F14's:



And your standard gunmetal:




I really like the bronze F14's becuase it's so different, but MAN does the matte black just look sinister. Got some opinions? Let me know what your think!

IMO, go with the gunmetal, the the combo of black car, rims, and tires has never looked good to me. Unless you live next door to a car wash and have tire wet on tap it's inevitable that all 3 will never be clean at the same time making one of the 3 look horrible by comparison, nothing turns my head away faster then a shiny black car with ashy tires or dusty rims.

As for the bronze, that rim pattern just makes the car look like a it should be on the set of the next smokey and the bandit movie. If thats your thing go for it, but I'm willing to bet you get tired of people asking are you going to put a bird on the hood too.
