    It's more money, but I like the one on the right the best. Check the wheels and pricing at www.summitracing.com. They have a store in McDonough, GA.

    I have a set of Torque Thrust II's that I bought off a guy my dad used to work with for $50. One of them has a diffrent backspacing then the other 3 though, so I'm trying to decide if I am going to use those or the wheels off my Ranger.

    I like the look of the Torque Thrusts alot more over the one on the left.

    I like the one on the right, but I've always been partial to the "torq-thurst" look. The other is kinda cool, kinda like a retro daisy wheel, but I'd loose the the knock off imo.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    i like both... but the one on the left cuz its differant the one on the right cuz of clissic style however not too keen on the chrome... i'm more of a polished type of guy;)

    also the ones on the left look like forged billet the ones on the left look cast.

    also IMO the 4.5 BS is too much for the 18 you can go with a wider tire with a 18x9 with a 4BS.. but what do i know :rolleyes:

    I like the 3rd one also. It is a lot of us that have rims that look like Cragers including me.
