Congratulations on your new wheels. They look really nice. I like the little spot of black on the center caps. Not that I am a big fan of chrome wheels myself but I think over all your car is looking pretty good.

The wheels look nice, I have chrome wheels too, I didn't buy them to please internet BB typists, you shouldn't either.

Dr. in all fairness, the poster, Husker, did ask for our opinions. And I think most people have diplomatically stated their preference.

True, only he needs to be completely happy...and he is. That all that matters.

I'm not trying to pick any fights, just say a lot of naysayers. Yes, he was looking for opinions I just thought he was getting too much negative feedback.

Thanks everyone for your comments, positive or polite. Obviously I didn't spend $2700 to please the forum membership. I spent a lot of time and energy looking at a lot of options. Sometimes it was frustrating but I ended up with what I wanted. I knew there would be some desenting opinions and that's fine. I think HIFI said it best - we all want to make our cars distinctive. I chose to go a different direction than most to do that.

And sometimes its fun to stir the pot, hence my tongue-in-cheek opening sentence - all "adjectives" I've seen used to describe chrome wheels by forum members. It's also good to see opinions from many "low volume" posters. Looks like the topic moved their needle. Silent majority? (more pot stirring)

BTW...
I'm keeping the Sport Classic IIs for winter duty. Pretty nice wheels for that, I know but gotta look good in the snow.
