I agree with others that those wheels look good on older cars circa e36 -
but noton an e9x.
But taste is very subjective.

Btw,fwiw: I have a 68 chevelle SS convert also:
fuzzy dice belong in the interior - never outside the car.

My 2cents

style 189 is one of the best for 18".. anyone else agree? For 19", I would say style 313 or 269.

I am also a little coming around on the silver finish, I used to think I wanted matte black to go with my AW, but now I am not so sure.
