Default Wheels, Need help choosing.

Well i've been informed by a few fellow CL members that Giovanna's aren't the best quality wheel to go with. I would like you guys to help me out with wheel options. Gimme some ideas! I would like 5 spoke design similar to the Giovanna Attack 2:




or maybe some wheels like these that are on GS400_Pusher's car, still in 5-spoke fashion

I'd like to know who told you Giovanna are the best quality? There are a handful of wheel lines that I could name that are twice as good as they are.

I wouldn't say Giovanna wheels are total crap like some people say it on here but there are better wheels to get. The TOTAL CRAP is where you buy at Pep Boys or what not, THAT IS CRAP. Why don't you look at the L-sportline wheels. Model 4 is a nice 5 spoke design, or the Model 1. Or Zauber Gettins. Did you take a look at my thread in this wheel forum? We have some very nice pic from Bluelex, Cong28 and Eric G. All 5 spoke designs. I am in the same boat as you, I am trying to pick rims.

Giovanna arent bad wheels.There styles may be lacking on a few wheels but overall they arent that bad quality.Did you see the demo cars they had at SEMA?Enzo,Maybach,7-series and many Mercedes plus some other hot stuff.They must be doing something right.Their line of GFG wheels are sick but I hear they are unbelievably pricey.If the Giovanna attacks are your first choice then stick with it.If thats what you like then I say go for it.Ask some people who own Giovanna's what they think of them.I know member "gentlebouncer" has those wheels.
