pattern, not the whole wheel.

they're both "split spoke" 5 spoke wheels. Staggered with a black face with accent rivets, polished lip, and chrome center cap. The pattern / Style is almost identical even if the color of the lip and it's outer edge is different.

Honestly I think the gold lip on your red car looks pretty bad...

Not a fan either, sorry.
The pattern may be similar to chrism's, but not damn near identical, as you put it.

I agree, but engine, and other projects that I'm not allowed to talk about are more important currently.

There's gold mica in the paint... So I think it matches pretty well. To each his own. I didn't want something that many people would even consider, and I'm not typically a fan of gold, but I loved the wheels when I saw them, so that's what I have. It's all about personal taste, and not so much about public opinion. I've yet to have anyone in our local car clubs say anything negative about the wheels... on the contrary, everyone comes over and wants to talk about them.

Anyway, I'm out.

LOL, I had 3 setups in mind and this was my #1, the other 2 are much more aggressive and will require more work to make them fit. Got more pics????

Haha. That's one of the reasons I choose my WORK Emotions. Only one other member on here that I know of has the same wheels. And I've been here quite awhile, searched many threads on wheels when I was looking to buy.
