Battle of the Boyds

What do you prefer for wheels to go onto my 1972 Chevelle? The Boyd Smoothie 2 or the new Junk Yard Dog? I will be going 17x8 in front and 17x10 in back. They are very simialr but the spokes are different (Smoothies seem to have a deeper dish look)

I like the first one (Junk Yard Dog). The spokes are smoother (dont have the line in the middle), and arn't as fat as the smoothies.

I like the JYD too. I like the thinner area around the lugs.
