Default Vossens CVT or Linea corse LC818

Hey guys, need some advice on wheels. I'm torn between the Vossens CVT's or the Linea Corse LC818's in Hyper silver. I love the cvt's but my car is gonna be kind of aggressive looking after the JP visage side skirts are on and the rear bumper and diffuser are painted.

Hyper silver or black ??? I think the silver stands out more which I like but I think the black looks more aggressive!

LC818, I think it will look much better with your current mods.

Vossens to be different. I've seen lots on LC818's. OG member montgb used to have them and a carbon hood (among other part). Just to give you an idea.

I definetly think I'm agreeing about the Lc818's with everyone. The black looks more aggressive to me, I love the look.^^^^ I think I kinda just wanna get on the Vossen band wagon because if they were a no name wheel this thread probably wouldn't exist. As far as being different, I don't think I'll see to many IS's around where I live with the Linea Corse's on so at the end of the day that's where I'm at. I wonder about the quality of the wheel though, at only $1299???

I haven't heard of quality issues with the lc818s. However, some members have reported that the manufacturer will not just sell 1 wheel in the event u bend a single rim.I remember two or three threads about the topic.
