Opinion Needed on 19'' Rims
Hi guys
Currently I am sporting a set of AMG 19's the bolt holes were bored out a tiny bit to fit 5x114
as the oem were 5x112
Do you guys think I should keep or lose the rims ?

I needed tires ASAP and I saw a deal on Tire rack for Breember Kraft BR01 rims at 98$ bucks a pop so I ordered them with my new tires.
but I am not sure anymore if I want to keep the AMG rims and switch to this
I do have Rotora BBKs with drilled rotors and I was going for a rim that you could see the BBK as the AMG rim spokes are too thick and you cant see the BBK's clearly
what you guys think >?

so you say keep the AMG's vs those rims I posted... I dont have them yet they are on the way to me from tirerack should get them next week, its just that I am totally lost between the 2.
The AMG rims are nice but too many people assume its a benz when they are next to me then see the Lexus on the hood and say to themselfs why the hell that guy has benz rims on his car..he prolly stole them lol
I dunno call me crazy haha.. but here are a few more shots of the AMG rims.. do give me your feedback.. (PS: remember I know the centercap on the breemer Kraft 19's that B is ugly just imagine a lexus centercap on them)
The following pics are a little old when I had brembo BBK's which are now for sale btw.

lol hahaha... 01lexpl what do you drive ?..
I got it from JP at 7K it did come with a nice BBK brembo kit but I had it taken off and put on Rotora BBK just because I got a good deal on them from a forum member on here..
to be honest I thought the brembo's were bad because the brake pedal felt so soft and I tried everything so swapped to Rotora BBK's just to find out the pedal felt like **** the funny thing is there was a 2nd nipple hidding behind a heat shield that you had to bleed out and now the BBK's feel awesome nice and stiff.
so I swapped for rotoras for nothing
I am selling the brembo's if you know anyone they can fit any car as long as you get the right mounting bracket

Here are 2 more shots of the AMG rims
I already swapped for the New rims and they look great
4'' lip in the back and 2'' lip in the front..
You can see my BBK's much better now looks very aggresive but i like that
PS: those brembo BBK's you see in the pics are for sale too as I swapped them out for Rotora's which I regret btw but too late now Im stuck with the Rotora's
im not swapping back too much of a husle to do all the work again. so F50 calipers +rotors and new pads for sale pm me
