The wheels look good, but centercaps are a must or the visual value of the wheels are decreased.

Its all personal preference, I prefer the "track look", if I wanted a show car we would have put the caps and closed end lugs.

Looks good... gotta love the CCW's on a vette.

I appreciate the race look as well but it looks unfinished without the caps....
