Dave,

Since you have so "kindly" requested a straight answer to your question. I think it looks better with the other wheel combination. The frone tirew looks too flat and wide compared to the old ones. The wheels look okay. Arethe sizes much different than the old combo?


Tim
p.s.
Please return the the regular schedules pick on Dave show.....

I think, if the inner portion of the wheels were painted BLACK they would realy stand out on that car.    I have not seen anodized or rough casting that looked good on many cars.   My opinion, paint the centers black.

Dave that is why it looks off. The wheel to tire ratio is not correct for the look you want. The front tires are too squatty. If the roadster is going to be a dark color it will blend better.....

That is a very nice car but i dont think the whitewalls will work with mine either..

I agree. I believe a little taller tire in the front would really make you happier with that combo.
