New Wheels or Re-Plate OEM Decision - Opinion
Hey Guys and Gals,
Having a hard time deciding whether to buy new wheels or re-plate my OEM wheels.
About $550 cheaper to re-plate but really trying to decide what looks best.
Any opinions?
Close up of new style wheel on the front. OEM wheel is on the rear.

Thanks to all for weighing in.
Really a tough decision.
I spent more time away from my business than it would cost to buy the wheels AND re-plate the originals with tires on both.
If the Hornets didn't have the Allen screw heads around the outside, I would be sold. The convex curve really ties in to the cars lines nicely.
Going for re-plate on the originals.
After the re-plate, I will decide whether to have a very cool Coventry Hornet spare or see if others that have Hornets want a deal on a matching spare.
Off to the plating shop!
Cheers!
