 :iagree: I like the smooth wheels without the holes, deep and wide!   :thumbs: 
But my favorites are the SS Cragers too.

slotted mags is way old school. Centerlines are old school too but Centerlines are a timeless classic that will never go out of style.

thanks people, so far centerlines win, as this 'buddy' of mine would always say they look ugly and its best way to go with is slotted mags. personally I wouldnt put those things on anything than mad max interceptor. I hate when he keeps on pushing his opinion down my throat, then gets all defensive and posts bs about me on boards.

because none of them had slotted mags, they had Sunraysia wheels

Polished slotted mags actually look pretty good on Chargers, especially the deep dish style.
Centerlines look like they were on special at Wal-Marts, buy 3 get 1 free.
Just my old school 2 cents worth.

Spoken from the mouth of a purest, one of the purest around!!  :beer:   But  :iagree: Love those Magnums but love the ralleys too. If needing to make a choice, hmm, tough decision. Hey 6pak2go, I might agree with you on the centerline truck look if they had the holes but those smoothies on 360's awesome great-white are gooooood looking!!  :grinyes:

Centerlines are light and a heck of alot stronger then slots..Ever see one of those slotted dish mag blow up on a tire changing machine?  I have , not pretty. Cragers and Keystones are very heavy and slots crack with any kind of abuse.  Centerlines however leak through the wheel lug holes sometimes and have to be re-sealed or run tubes :???:

All these wheels have problems but I tend to like the racey look so I lean towards Centerlines or Super tricks.  I really like the old weld wheels too :thumbs:
