I agree, the more I look at the mulit-spoke wheel the more I like that look on the SC. The #2 wheels seem too OEM style, IMHO, kinda like the 19" wheels from a G35 coupe.

I like the current setup as well, maybe switch to a lighter forged 20"? Also a different finish, to change things up.

Isn't "a lighter ... 20inch" an oxymoron? This is why I am considering a forged 19. The 20" Mayas are to heavy. It makes the steering feel a bit slow; and thank goodness for the Stoptechs.

finally got a digicam. not a great shot as it was shot inside my dark garage but you can see similar wheels to #2 (volk progressiv te, 19", +22 offets, 8.5"/9.5").
