Im personally more of a 5 spoke kinda guy, but on the T/A's , the split 5 or multi spokes look better. Of the ones you listed with pics, my vote goes to the CCW 505's. You have to keep in mind though, those cars are running 19's! Those wheels will look alot different in a 17 or 18 with the taller sidewall. I purchased SP500s in 18" last fall for my Camaro. Looks good, but something about the cars with the 19's looks better. Especially in the T/A's, still a little on the fence with the Camaros. The five spoke Ive seen on a T/A that I like the most is whats on 69 T/A's (?) car. If I remember correctly, they are Kenisis wheels. I cant remember which model designation, but when I was researching them a few years back they were either the K58R or K59R. AS far as the 505's go, I know you mentioned everyones got em, but does everyone got em in your area? I know the SP500's are very popular for the Camaros, but I purchased them anyways knowing that Ive never seen them on any other car in my area.

I think part of my issue with mine being 18's is that I ordered them in the black powder coat. With the rolled edge on the lip, it sort of makes the sidewall look thicker. If I'd have thought of that alot sooner, I probably would have went with the 19's. I also had my tires purchased and waiting for wheels for about a year prior to ordering the wheels. Kinda had to stick with the 18's.... In the polished, Im with ya, the 19's almost look too thin, atleast on the Camaro. T/A I think they are perfect, just my opinion.

They aren't too bad to keep clean, but they are really easy to get dirty if that makes any sense. But as long as you stay on top of them they will shine. This is a cell phone pic.
When i first saw them in the for sale ad i wasn't blown away by them. But after seeing them in person and owning them i love them to death. My next wheel purchase for the TA will definitely be Fikse again.

I know this is super late, but I just found this thread. There is a guy here in TN that put some of the concaves on his R35. It looks super hot.
I didn't think I would like the concaves, but I have seen them on a handful of cars and really dig the look. It looks super hot on the vettes too.

^That looks sexy. The few high end companies that are doing Concave lines are all close to $5000 for a set from what Ive gathered.
Tran, Forgestars are over a month build time now too arent they? Plus no chrome/polished. I want shiney!
