Hey, guys, please give me your opinion.

We are building a project Amistad IS350, just wonder which Amistad wheel you guys like better. We expect to reach 3.5" lip for the Rear (body kit is NOT ready yet).

The car probably will be in dark grey or black, use your imagination.

This is Amistad Type C

Best of both worlds.

Yah, that's what I am talking about. Since the car will be in showroom and will not be on the road, I will try to do it that way.

We have a lot of Type Rs in the US, if we have to put on A SET, maybe Type C - haven't decided yet. Please more feedbacks

For the folks who are in favor of Type C, would you choose BLACK CHROME or BLACK GOLD on a Black IS350? BOTH cars are special color in Japan and Black Gold is the special color available with Amistad.

IMO, the R type over the C and O; it looks less like a ceiling fan and rather a racing wheel...

I am only feeling for the Type C. The more "open" look is what I like the best. The other two have less of an "open and airy" look.
