    Debating on getting 15" weaves or keeping my wheels.

    I've got 16" RD right now, which if I decide to keep them, I'd go with a black/polished lip scheme. Thanks to Brant, here's what it could look like.



    Or, should I go with the Euro basketweaves?

    Right now, I'm leaning towards my repainted wheels, but just wanted to see what your opinions were. Thanks.

        I'd probably keep the RDs, unless there is a tire that you want that will only fit on a 15" wheel. I like my 15" BBS, but RDs are already rare and pretty cool looking IMO.

            Personally, I would think more of a graphite/polished thing would be better.

            JMHO.

                Yeah, the guy I bought it from tore the lip off on a curb. The side skirts are stock is'.

                  weird. with my skirts (touring are the same as "is") I think it would look weird, as in the skirts being higher than the lip. but on your car it looks as if the lip would be flush with the skirts

                      I think RD's are too classic for that color scheme, I would just keep them silver. They are far superior to factory basketweaves though, even 15's.

                        Really? Some guy's offering to trade my wheels for his 15" weaves right now. You think that's a bad move, huh?

                          15" weaves are only worth $300-400 in good shape, and RD's are worth closer to a grand I'd say.

                            That much, huh? I've never seen one for sale on ebay or here, so I didn't know what they were priced out at. Thanks for the heads up.

                              Black spokes might look cool.
                              I like the look of this Touring, which is kinda like your wheels minus the lips.
