What Wheel Color?

Those Aero wheels are pretty cool. If Summit Racing were a mile from my house I'd be broke, divorced or both.

Aero makes a quality race wheel. Most of the Cup teams use them.

The black chrome ones would look pretty good

I think this will work. Of course, darken the center and leave the outer piece silver would look even better. IMHO Darken the center as in charcoal or dark gray, not black. Or as said, a couple shades darker than body.

Summit kinda sucks for oval track style steelies. Speedway has a better selection and more backspaces available.

And, they have these wheels, which look better, IMO

If you go with the stock car wheels make sure you get the right lug nuts. Most of them use a 45deg seat instead of the standard 60deg.

I agree they look better, but they're the wrong size. Summit actually has a better selection of steel wheels in the size I need, 15x7 with a 4" BC and 5x4.5 bolt pattern.

Neon green.

How much are those?

Well thanks for THAT!

One thing that shocked me was the difference in weight between the Bassett and Bart wheels. In the exact same size, the Barts are 5.25 lbs heavier! But they are in stock at Summit, and the Bassett's aren't. Then again, what I really want are Torque Thrusts...
I think I'm more undecided than I was before I asked.

If you really want Torque Thrusts then why not find some SN95 Bullitt 17" rims on CL. They'll bolt right up and you'll have more tire selections.

In reply to hrdlydangerous:

Well those aren't torque thrusts, and I already have the 15" tires. On top of that, I don't like big wheels on old cars, so no interest in 17's. I'm not buying TT's purely for economical reasons. I've got two kids in college, so I have to do this as inexpensively as possible.
