    My car has the same as #1 but I voted #3. I like how the yellow breaks up all the black on the wheels and tires.
    I was considering doing mine body color. I bought a Grabber Blue spray bomb yesterday to do a test wheel.

    My vote is for #3, I am a big fan of body color wheels, looks like a sleeper to me. I think it would look even better with some wider wheels

    option #3 is nice, but doesnt scream haulin-ass like #2 does. With the scoop and the front air dam and #2s blacked out look, they all compliment each other well I think.

    None of the above. Your car needs something with a Trans Am look (the race series...not a Pontiac) like the 70 Bosses ran. I had a set of Westerns on one of my old Mustangs that looked like Mini Lites but I can't find a good pic. Here they are on my old Fairlane and another pic of what I am talking about. Several companies make similar wheels now even in larger diameters.

    I agree with supermav - #3 wheels & #2 tires
