Default What wheels to slam the Soarer on?

Hi guys,

Test fitted my Work Emitz'z'z'z yesterday, and was totally put off of them. I can't picture them looking good, even if I had them powder coated or sum'n else.

So, my plan is either to get something with some nice dish, either spoke-ey, like Work VS-XX's, or get something with fat chunky spokes, like Work Meisters. Either way, with whatever wheels I get, I want to powder coat the face a nice deep glossy blue (this finish, but darker: http://rotiform.com/products_tmb_3pc_concave.html)

HELP ME DECIDE!!!

I have a pearl white Soarer, if that helps with opinions.

VS-XX's:


Meisters:

Pretty much what mine looks like, minus the wheels and low. Imagine this one with blue wheel faces.

And on a side note... 18's or 19's??

I'm calling it a Soarer because it was privately imported into Australia with a Toyota and a Soarer badge on the back. It's a Soarer. I'm not used to calling my car an 'SC300'.

I get what you mean when you say the VS's are plain... they seem to be a very common design.

both wheels are nice, very common though. It depends on your style and what you prefer. The VSXXs are my preference, but would be a pain in the *** to keep clean, lol

Well it's only a compliment if someone from another country has seen your car and wants to use it for inspiration!

And you must be able to see the confusion... those seriously look like work meisters, they look like they have the curved ends and everything. And I'm pretty sure I found that picture by plugging 'sc300 work meisters' into Google. Either way it looks good.
