Help with CCW's
 
So last year I sold my Classics...

I miss them so I'm ordering another set.

I need some help! The last set was all polished race versions.

But now I'm have trouble deciding if I should go with all polished,
OR a brushed bright clear center and full Swiss option.
Or just polished with Swiss option.

Here what it was before

I really like that wheel in full polished.

Leedogg Mar 15, 2013 04:48 PM

I was looking at them for my T/A(the LM5's actually), and if I bought a set today I would go brushed. I am not a fan of the 'swiss' version myself.

BTW- Sweet car! Your car makes me miss mine bad...Traded it off a couple yrs ago and kept my T/A. Couldn't afford 2 hot rods.LOL

Mac I'm the one who first posted that pic lol

That's the car that gave me the idea to get the ridiculous sizes I had before and the ones I'm about to get.
That's the brushed I was referring to^^^

Needless to say neither option will look bad, but I think a little bit of brushed will give it a nice presence.

desertLS1 Mar 15, 2013 08:09 PM

I agree, I think it will go good up against the silver car.

Thanks for the reply's!

Thats why I posted it up. I LOVE that combo, Brushed FTW.

Brushed with Swiss it IS.

Fuuuuudge^ That is sexy!

Rise of the Phoenix Mar 16, 2013 05:10 PM

I'm a fan of both, but on the Classics, the brushed look is pretty awesome. I kind of wish my CCW 505a's had brushed centers.

By the way, what is swiss?

beyonddisturbed Mar 16, 2013 11:42 PM

I like the polished. Wow OP that is a gorgeous car. I need a vette in the stable....

green manalishi Mar 17, 2013 02:08 AM

cant go wrong with either one, but im leaning toward brushed myself...

The BMW I posted has the full Swiss option, extra holes cut out around the wheel next to the bolts and between the lugs.
Weight saving option.

red04montels Mar 17, 2013 12:12 PM

I agree, I don't think either option will look bad, they both look pretty damn cool

SnakeStomper Mar 17, 2013 02:27 PM

Mine...

Just a chance to show em off lol

NBM99SS Mar 17, 2013 06:40 PM

I dislike them without center caps so at least get street versions. I like both the brushed and full polish tho

desertLS1 Mar 17, 2013 07:48 PM

Lol nice Snake!

NBM, I can't get past the center caps, they look so awkward and out of place.

Race versions for me.

I'm still 50/50 on full polished or brushed centers lol

RoidedSS Mar 18, 2013 12:31 AM

flat black centers......lol nah I like the brushed more since it gives a little bit of contrast and will probably be easier to keep clean

Rise of the Phoenix Mar 18, 2013 08:07 AM

desertls1, think of it this way. Brushed centers are more unique, easier to keep clean and look great. With the color of your vette, the brushed center would look tits.
