Default What do you guys think of these?

Ok So when I get the new SC, it's going to get painted a deep dark black. What i don't know yet. But the issue I'm having is picking out a set of wheels. I need to order the wheels now and i have finally come to a conclusion on a set that I like.

They are the Weds Sport Kranze LXZ's. I think they will look great on a black car. I'll probably pick them up in Chome 19's. But here are my questions.

1) Does anyone know where I can find a Weds dealer.

2) Should I get the 521Evo's which have no rivets or the regular ones.

I'm looking for opinions here guys I need some help. Got a lot of work I need to get done for the next season and business.

The first ones are gorgeous. That's on my list of choices but with a machined finish and the black inserts.

Mmmm... yummy.
