So I'm really torn between these two sets. I was going to go with the first set, but then I saw the second set and I'm torn >.< They're damn near the same but...different...








Sorry the second one is so big. Couldn't find a smaller pic

Opinions? Thoughts? Placing the order tomorrow! (July 5th)

Stance wheels or the second you chose look much better than the first.

if you're trying to save some money and want a pretty good set of wheels look into some Linea Corse
alot of members have them
[URL="http://www.wheeldude.com/wordpress/tag/linea-corse"]
or maybe get a set of LFA replicas. I bought a set for my winter set up for $1550 shipped with tires, tpms, locks and lugs

if you're looking to spend a little more money check these links out
http://www.nutekwheels.com/t-wheels.aspxhttp://www.strasseforged.com/
http://www.forgeline.com/
http://www.forgestar.com/v2/
http://rohanawheels.com/
http://www.vossenwheels.com/

You're gonna be spending a ton of money on wheels regardless so really research before u jump on the ones u picked. To each their own but wheels really change how the car looks and you don't wanna get stuck with something you'll regret. It'll be hard to resell if you wanna get rid of them too.

Don't go with your choices! But if you have to the 2nd one. I like the stance rims best so far on here.
