I have narrowed my choices down to 2, both Iforged. The Daytona with the new forging process, and the Equips. I am leaning more towards the Daytonas because of the nice rear lip, and I know that are very similar as far as look. I like the equip because it is very clean looking with no rivets. So basically I am on the fence about the rivets. Rivets or no rivets. My car is silver and I am thinking about going in either the Hipolished finish or Graphite center with hipolish lips. I have never really been a fan of the dark colored wheels on silver cars but saw some silver BMWs on E46fanatics that I really liked. Please give me your opinions and comments. Also I dont like the brushed aluminum so that isnt an option. Im not sure how to post pics of the wheels here so if someone could help me out Id appreciate it

 

Personally I prefer rivets I may even pick the Daytona over the HRE 841R because of that

 

Either wheel would be a great choice...

Regarding the rivets, I opted to have my Fluxes made without them. Not that wheels with rivets aren't attractive, I just think the wheels look a little cleaner sans rivets.

As far as the finish goes, I guess it depends on what look you are going for. IMO, the graphite centers with polished lips are more sporty and the polished wheels are more classy. You stated that brushed is not an option, but that was what I went with and feel it's a pretty good mixture of both looks. If brushed was not available, I would've gone with polished.

Good luck with your purchase, brother...I know what a pain it is to make a final decision!

 

i like the daytona a lot too, style wise very nice

 

Would you do the daytona without rivets or with rivets. I think I am leaning toward doing the wheels in hi polish as the graphite finish is not really the look I am going for. I really wish that I could get into the brushed finish but for some reason I just cant. I have seen it on so many cars here and for some reason I just cant pull the trigger

 

personally i would get the rivets for sure. the only thing that put me off on no 840r (instead 540r) was the missing rivets, "too" clean imho.

in high polish, i think with rivets the rims will look more "meaty"

 

meaty being a good thing or bad thing?

 

Rivets with Graphite finish

 

daytona with rivets...............i like your choice, will look really good plus d2 has really good feedback and customer satisfaction

 

of course a good thing imho. our cars are big and bulky, you want something "big"

 

thats what I was thinking but just wanted to clarify Meaty is good on a car but not on a woman

 

haha it's all preference i guess just like how some people like 840R series more. for example the wheels look so hot on davegs4's car

 

where can i see a link are these on tire rack.com? can i get alink please thasnx

 

Equip



Daytona (black)

 

so basically the equip and the daytona look alike except that the daytona is the ne forging tech with more lip huh
