Exclamation wheel choice need help!

Hmmmm, i like the second wheel, but dont know how it would look on a car. The second wheel for sure would look good, and either would be good in gold. I guess id choose the first one.

Ment to say the first wheel, lol. not the second. I was trying to say the first wheel will definetly look good on your car, and either wheel would look good powder coated gold. But since i havent seen the second wheel on a car, i would choose the first one. Hope that clears that up a little bit. LOL
