another black rim thread

Christmas time is coming. Im looking at rim and tires.
I want black rims. I see that cragars are less costly than most.

So which ones? Id love some pro comps or Mickey Ts, but dont want to spend the extra when I can just get some cragars.

Whachu guys think? Post pics if you have them.

Is "bolt circle" the same as "lug pattern"?

Isnt our lug pattern 5x4.5? These say "Bolt circle 5x114.3"

Are these the same?

see, I love the 185's, but I dont like the outer chrome. I dont want to have to worry aboout painting the rims at all.

Oh by the way Mike, if you ever decide to sell your sliders, I want dibs.

Edit: AND your billet grille

I know it's an old thread.....but....

After having so many steel wheels in the past, I don't ever really wanna go back to steel unless it's a full blown wheeler. Balancing is always an issue since steel wheels typically are always oval in some way or another.

But....here's my ProComp 51series Daytona's...15x10 w/ 4" backspace...
