          Not so sure how they'd look on a Sterling Silver car. Also, I have two sets of baskets to go with the Alpinas already.

            Ah good point

            The Alpinas are going to look pimp!

              The n00b will have the nicest looking car out there. ;)

              Scott, 15" weave, seriously. Remember the clean white cabby on euro weaves?

                I am no longer a noob - I had my cherry popped last week!

                And Scott, if you want the nogaros, maybe we can work something out. You could always re-finish them in gold if you wanted.

                  Thanks for that link man - those are some nice lookin wheels.

                  Heeter, refresh my memory on the white cab. Also, why not go with those 16" weaves instead? Bigger than the 15" euros...

                  Dave, the nogaros are too pretty - and too small ;) They're perfect wheels for someone looking to rock a 14" wheel - but I want bigger for the vert. Besides, that tan top is calling for gold weaves... ;)

                          Why oh why would you want LTW Replicas as track rims?

                          Anyways, I really like the looks of Jay's basketweaves, but the fact that they are made by Prime is a turnoff. And I don't know about gold with a tan top.

                            Haha, I dunno - I just like them and only have two cars - the track car and the vert. So I'd put them on the track car. Though, it doesn't make sense to run 17's on a track car, so maybe just keep them as a spare...

                            No gold with the tan top?? What color then?

                              I don't know honestly. I try to keep a car down to 2 or 3 colors, so I think the rims should be a solid color. Silver I guess would be the safest bet. I think tan and gold are too close yet too far in similarity to work together.

                              LTW replicas are heavier than 20lbs a rim, closer to 25lbs I think. That is the main reason I wouldn't want them as track rims.
