Default VS-XX vs. Brombacher

We are looking for a light weight good quality set of 19inch rims, we like the deep dish style, and not into chrome. We were considering to get either:
http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...ry=26&wheel=75 - Burning Silver
http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...y=38&wheel=104

Do you guys have any view or recommendations?

The customer's car is a silver 95 sc400.

Thanks in Advanced!
Nick.

VS-XX... because as far as I know, the Brombacher is only available in 5x130.

isn't Brombacher's made for Porsche cars or cars with the same bolt pattern as Porsche? so either way you'll be stuck getting VS-XX. Either way my vote goes to VS-XX hahah

Any other preferences for the SC? Pics with them on the car would be nice. I think ScottURNot has a set of chrome VS-XX on his white SC. I am going by the pics that I have seen.

vs-xx's are so clean... are you just going with a mesh wheel? cuz the vs-kf's 5-spoke are one of my favorite wheels ever.

Can't go wrong with a set of VS-XX on these cars.

No, they're both quality wheels, but I do believe that BBS-LM is the best looking wheel ever, and would definitely choose a set of those over a set of Work VS-XX.
