:iagree: The contrast of the black around the spinner makes it real sharp. :thumbs:

Isn't the purpose to make the wheel look like it doesn't need lug nuts? :confused:
I like the cones.

I vote for the cones. They set those very shiney wheels off so well. It's hard to tell which is more shiny -- the wheels or the cones. Man, I got to get mine polished professionally. Anybody know somebody closer than Fl. that does that kind of work. Those are probably the best polished wheels i have seen in a long time. :cool: :cool:

1st of all...thank you for any and all compliments... :)
now im REALLY undecided! :lol:
i definetly agree that the black sets them off and i really like that look...
on the other hand...the cones DO have a nice clean look as well as being more realistic...ie why would you have knock offs AND lugs?

the really good thing is that the cones are very easily added or removed so i will probably end up running them or not according to my mood at the time...
thank you all for your honest opinions... :)
