I have to disagree about the Rivas. The hard edge of the spoke clashes with the complex curves of the rest of the car. Other than the verticle door edge, there is hardly a straight line in the design of the shark. The Rivas resemble the Cup IIs, but the Cups have much softer intersection where it joins w/the rim itself, it curves into the middle of the rim and the edge of the spoke widens as it goes into the rim, so as to remove a 90°. It also curves longitudinally and across the width of the rib. Generally owners dislike rub strips for the same reasons, it is a long unbroken straight line. And what are the smaller holes between the lug openings? Attachment points for spinners?
But if you like 'em, that's all what matters.

Pics on your first post and asking questions about wheels.... You'll fit right in with this group. Welcome to the asylum!
Oh yeah and keep in mind that OB stands for old body style (pre 87), Amsoil isn't the best, always lube your nuts, and torque > horsepower
