I was Curious to what the most popular Cal-Look wheel is. Then I got a little carried away, and figured we could just see how many sets of wheels that we have here on the lounge  Wink

Is this question to be based on what people actually 'have'.. ot what they'd actually 'like to have'?

Also are we asking this Historically or as of right now? Grin

I answer to "Whats the Most Popular Cal-Look Wheel???" and not what I already have ! Its two separate questions...
I have some Gasburners but, they are not on my top 20 in "Whats the Most Popular Cal-Look Wheel Huh" but in the Top 5 in wheels I actually "have"...
Think you must do it again !

19% of people have true BRM's at home... hum... Huh

Two separate topic :

"Whats the Most Popular Cal-Look Wheel" ?

"Whats the wheel you have right now" ?

This is about wheels you own right now.

I know what your saying.
I feel that the wheels listed are the most likely to find their way on a cal -looker, so in a sense it should give us a good idea of whats out there, but hey if the People of The Lounge want it changed we can do that.

I suggest you re-title the poll "what wheels do you actually have".
Then use the results to see what wheels are most popular.
Although, the poll findings would suggest what wheels are most abundant in the Cal-Look crowd.
The way it is, it just suggests a "wouldn't it be cool if" poll.

On the other hand every guy and their dog has Fuchs Wink (me included)

IMHO, the most interesting question would be what wheels would your dream Cal Looker have.

Perhaps the percentages are being tilted by the cross section of the people use the lounge

Maybe lounge members are more hardcore collectors / cal look fans thus have a greater selection of rare wheels ......

Wrong discussion thread for me... I never care for anything that's popular, such as it were.

Carry on.

I would say the most popular are fake BRM`s. But the ones I have on my current car are real Centerlines.
