Ya I agree! Lets narrow it down to just the First one and the second! Now the Even harder part is what size and offset!

Both are really nice wheels. If choice 2 had the lip on choice 1 then it would be even better. My final decision will have to be choice 1 with a silver finish.

go 19" and offset depends on how low your going and what kind of suspension, how aggressive and what youre willing to do to make it fit (pull, roll, shave, camber, stretch)

I like the AME's more, but in a brushed finish.

Thanks guys there both about the same price! And i know the dish in these pics and the ones that are going to fit the best are all acording to what suspension im going to roll! The first pic is of course a very agresive offset and the second just not as agresive hense the fatter lip!
Here is my dilemma, This is my daily driver and i do hall clients around town every once in a while! so comfort is very important! But i want to go with a VIP styled wheel and offset, Basicly getting Flush as possible! And i was going silver wheel from the get-go! And a staggered 19".

whats wrong with crome (chrome)? I thought it was a part of the VIP/LUX culture.
