Decided to post this up here instead of the wheels and tires section since this is just down to a style preference sort of thing. SO! I'm going to be ordering up some Cragars and new tires, and I'm just kind of torn on the style. Opinions, please.

Soft 8's

or D window

or V-5

I think I like the D window more than the soft 8...but you hardly see anyone running the V-5's and they might be cool since I'd still have 5 spokes like I do now. But then again the D window has kind of a stock car look which is cool.

You're thinking is exactly how I'm thinking, lol.
V-5 to be different, which looks really cool in my opinion. (There a couple of people running the V-5's)
Then the D Windows.
Then the Soft 8's.

I like them all, just in that order.

I ended up with the D-Windows because I found them locally on Craigslist. CHEAP, in a good used condition with tires.

Good luck!

I don't cringe, but I don't pay them any attention either, I want my CRD to be noticed, guess i am old school, I still like white spokes and chrome spoke Cragars.

Thats why I put white spokes on my trailer, old school all the way!
:wink:

I wish someone would come out with some new decent looking wheels, soft 8s are getting to be like belly buttons, everyone has them and they don't look that good IMO
