need opinions on wheel designs

I need opinions on these wheels, once again. I'm so close to finalizing a deal with a manufacterer on:
3 piece forged wheels in
-chrome,
-black face with chrome lip and
-machine diamond cut face/clearcoat with a chrome lip.

*all the wheels will be 19" and 20" with staggered options available.


I'ts hard to decide since I will have 26 sets produced based on one design...

cool designs but not my taste....and since this is a CL site and most here like 'safe' designs...you may not get much love.

I'm diggin all those except the third one, in this order: 2, 1, 4, 3.

I checked the site, some of the images look really badly maniped, but I'm a designer myself, so I might be looking in too much.

For me it's a toss up between 2 and 1. They both are phat.

But please loose the extra bolt holes.

yo, wheel one and two will be your "safest design" All your wheels are styles that people really havent seen yet, you actually can be startin a trend. The last 2 are more of a wheel you bring out once you are established.

show some tire around the rims Ron.

It'll give us a better idea of what they would really look like.

Number 2 is real nice.

I agree, it would be a nice wheel to make a statement with when I debut. here is the concept I'm gonna submit to the manufacterer...
