Afterward refinished at Jerry Woods by a couple PO's ago...white with chromed rings. I'm not sure of the wheel finish on the car originally. Spats look original/as delivered, but just my guess. H1 w/ chrome trim rings by a PO.

Funny, but i have thought about if I'd prefer black Fuchs with polished rings, no spats, and a white trim ring on the H1's. Perhaps a little cleaner look? Not sure.

Nice car they definately look related. mine just has a fatter azz (kind of like the driver). i would go with the painted rings on the headlights. personally I dont think the chrome looks right without chrome door handles and window tim.
I also like how the filler behind the front bumper accordian is painted body color. On my car it is part of the spoiler and looks unfinished or something.

Big vote for "after" - both the wider rears fill out the wheel wells better and the white Fuchs look great.

After. But it's a Hobson's Choice. Matte Black with anodized rim (the chromed appearance would be a 2nd choice, but not preferred). Think resale. Or think about that red cab above with red fuchs. Don't think so.

regards to all, Dan
