Which wheel do you like best. Which do you think would look best on my 69? Now based on price which would you pick.

Looks alone-- the Boyd's with the Bonspeeds as an honorable second. If on a tight budget, go with the Bonspeeds, they're a great looking wheel as well. You didn't mention size, so I just assumed pricing for 18x8 / 18x9/10.

Boyds if you have the brakes to fill them up? small spokes need big brakes or they look weird? Not that we don't all love big brakes anyway

You've got it Ralph, 18x8 and 18x10's

Going with 6 piston Wilwoods superlite up front and 4 piston dynalite out back, so the should look good through any wheel.

There going on a 69 Camaro vert... the car in my avatar

Well Clint, I've always leaned towards the Boyd's, but seeing as I could save around $300 or so just on the rear wheels and tires by going with the Fastlane's I thought Hmmm, they don't look so bad, then I saw Newstalgia now sells Bonspeed's and I got really confused...

The Boyds don't do it for me. The holes in the inside of the rim spoil it. W/o that, killer looking wheel over the other 2.

I usually like most of Boyd's wheels. However, on your Camaro I think the Fastlanes are a nicer mag. I guess everyone has their opinions.

I pick C. Don't worry about the money. At the stage its about getting the car to look good.

Based on style C, for sure! But for price, there is only ~$10/wheel difference between the Bonspeed and Boyd, so if money is an issue, then 2 is the only choice, which is about $140/wheel less than the Boyds. (looking at 18x9 sizes) Personally, my choice is still the Boyds, since we're spending your money.

Well with 80% of the precincts reporting in it appears we have a clear winner. I was always leaning towards the Boyd's but really value your opinions and want to make sure. So I'm ordering the Osiris wheels with the BFG KDW-2's in a week or so from Howard at Newstalgia. Thanks for all the replys, votes, etc... I thing they should look bad a$$!

Just wanted to chime in with my two cents - don't do business with Bonspeed. I know I had a bad experience with them and people say I was "bashing" them, but - the sad condition that they came in deserved the "bashing", and I don't want it to happen to anyone else.
