Default New Wheels
I have decided to replace my wagon wheels on my black 99 frc
with a set of thin spoke chrome wheels.My problem now is deciding between deep dish or regular wheels. Any thoughts and or pics to help
me decide would be appreciated. I probably am going to buy from
jwmotoring.

Thanks for considering us.

I've attached a few pics. Nothing in black with the chrome you're looking for. It seems most of my customers with black cars go with black wheels.

Personally I like the dished version. Most newer wheels have a lip to them which I like.
