Wheel choice...
#1
Well, I had a chance to buy some Sparco rims from a buddy, so I did. Now, I'm not sure if I like the look as much as I thought I would. They look alot like EAPs to me...

Previous look (with SVT 5-spokes and paint in better shape):

New look, with Sparco Pistas (skirts will be going back on shortly)

I think the sparco's would look great with a little bit of a drop. Car is sitting high for me so it throws the sparco's off for me but i do like them over the SVT 5 spokes.

FWIW I much prefer the 5-spokes - especially on a silver car. Even now so many years later to me they look super clean not to mention there isn't any size brake you can't fit in behind them. Add in the practicality of being uber easy to clean and IMO you have a long-term winner.

As for the Sparco's, IMO they don't even look as good as EAPs - there's something about the different spacing that looks a bit weird to me - but then again I'm all about symmetry, so that's just my .02
