Thoughts on these new Nutek wheels??

I have a set of 3-piece wheels and sending back to Nutek and they are going to rebuild into a new set for me - like to get thoughts on the brushed/black look or the all brushed. The set shown on the car are what they are rebuilding -

Either one looks real nice IMO. If you plan on eliminating any more chrome than I'd lean toward the black face wheel. Guess you weren't diggin the 5 spoke setup, those look pretty nice too

I was not a fan of the silver/black set-up and the wheels were a little dated. One of the wheels developed a small crack in one of the splines and under warranty Nutek will replace wheel - since they no longer make that design they are offering to rebuild the wheel using one of their new designs.

I really like the second one all brushed w chrome lip? I have always liked the multi spoke design. Always thought the 5 spoke was a American car look ?

All brushed, I think its a classier look that fits well with the G.

I wanted to go full matte black, but with the chrome lip I had to go with the two tone - not a fan of the all black wheel with chrome lip. I think I'm leaning towards the brush/chrome

Funny thing is that everyone is saying the current wheels look good, but when I tried to sell them for 1/4 price of new I could not even get a nibble

I would go with all brushed look. I understand with the complimenting but no dice with selling. Very frustrating

lik eboth of the stand alone wheel pics. much better than the ones on the car. I think either is nice but if you keep the chrome the polished is good. wonder what a black chrome and trim to match would look like.
