 Help me choose wheels Guys I need your help to choose wheels for my MCY Viggen vert. Which wheels do you think look best on the car 1,2 or 3? Excuse the poor photoshop, I spent a few minutes to do all 3 1-- Original Viggen wheels  2-- Aero double Y spokes  3-- Garry Fisher wheels  And although mine is it's exact twin, this one isn't mine

Re: Help me choose wheels I have never been a fan of "plain" five spoke wheels, especially the Viggen ones since they are so soft. And the Gary Fishers look too bulky on the convertible IMHO, so it is number two for me.

Re: Help me choose wheels Wow Choice is for Gary Fishers over here I love those but decided to go with the Aero double 3 wheels. I love the Gary Fishers and Palmer's price can't be beat (and that price including shipping will be the same as fixing my crappy Viggen wheels I'll never find them for that price again) but the wife hates them I really want them but have no place to store yet another set. I have to agree though that they look odd on the Viggen. I'm shopping for Aero double 3s; if anybody has any leads to a decent set please let me know. In the meantime I had an estimate to repair the Viggen wheels at a reputable shop. Cost will be $75 per wheel Canadian. If I can't find double 3 Aeros, I guess I'll fix them.

Re: Help me choose wheels I would go for number 3 if I had to choose one of the 3 , but, my favorite is the ALU50 the split 5 spoke that comes with the 2008 AERO, I seen them reduced on ELK parts cant remember the exact price, very nice car by the way
