Maybe TSW Nurburgring Machined? I read it's rotary forged like Forgestar, so should be pretty good quality right? Kinda off topic, more asking this for myself lol...

+1. I just put those on my TP, and think they'd look great on SGM.

I like to get the CV7's in matte graphite machined, waiting for them to make them in 19s hopefully.
I think they hide the small brakes a little better than the CV5.

The style of the wheel itself is really subjective...but the color is another thing. I perfer a silver or bronze wheel color on a SGM 2IS car personally.
