Cool

Hey guys, this is not a bad dillemma to have but I am stuck between two wheel choices. I am going to get a set of 18" billet wheels for my bagged red '91 Ford Ranger extended cab and would like some input. Here are my choices:

The Intro Pentia:


The Intro Hammer 5:


Based purely on looks, which would be a better choice? I like the cleaner lines of the Pentia, but I like the fact that the Hammer would help cover my less than prefect underpinnings. We don't all have chrome calipers and 4-wheel discs eh? Thanks for any input/votes.

The first wheel looks better IMO.

I guess with the money I would save, I could get enough condoms to deal with all the ladies I would be getting due to the new dub-minus-seven's eh?

Anyways, thanks for the input, I was leaning towards the Pentias myself as well.

Thumbs up

Pentia for sure, much cleaner, cleaner is better, plus maybe you'll get those nice brake calipers in the future. You know how things snowball.
