I ordered a set of Forgeline GA3R in 20 x 9.5 and 20 x 11 with competition centercaps and titanium bolts.
After looking at the different colors so much it got to a point were I'm having a hard time deciding which finish to get. Thanks for the help!

It depends on what type of look you're going after. I think a matte black would look good but it may be too much contrast with the white stripes. Polished would be too flashy so maybe go with gunmetal centers and black rims or black centers and gunmetal rims. Whatever you end up with I'm sure will look great!

idk, thats a hard one due to the many colors on the car, ever think of a white star/polished rim?
good luck buddy.

Maybe even black centers and brushed hoops, or gunmetal w/brushed hoops.

I think that car would look great with a satin black center and polished lip, with black lug nuts and black center cap!
Pretty much like the ones I run...

I was going to say bronze if they have it probably because I'm a big fan and not a whole lot of people go that route but I think I agree with Frank. Black wont go with the white stripes.

If they were my $4000+ wheels, I'd be begging (or paying) for some photoshops to make sure I get it right.
Money well spent in the long run...

I appreciate the help guys.......
My first choice is Satin black centers with Gloss Black lips. I do graphics so I can test an orange pinstripe out of vinyl.
Here's some quick Photoshop, It gives it that exotic look I guess and seems to tie well with the black accents and black interior...........I got a little crazy with the brakes. haha

I agree with some of the above, a brushed center, or titanium center with a black lip would look awesome on that car.

I feel your pain! picking wheels is tough. But since we are talking forgeline's, I would say there "HTM"(brushed) finished is really nice and hasn't been all used up like flat black. Plus brushed wheels look good on any color.
