Help me choose!!!
Hey all!
I have a company that is building a wheel for me but I'm trying to figure out which will be the best choice. What are your thoughts? These are 3-piece forged wheels from a company in CA so they are US-made/US-materials. The mesh-style on top will cost me $5,200. The second one on the bottom is completely custom at $6,400. 19inch x 9 front and 19 x 11 rear Your thoughts? |

Orrrr, you could spend the money on some Volks or BBS? Personally I would worry about the reliability of custom wheels during track use.

In fact, I actually had some flowformed wheels on my heavy butt GTR that I shipped to Europe and flogged on the 'Ring. http://www.forgestar.com/blog/?p=1165 |

Darker, always darker. and the top option, since the other looks like something that a Ford would sell. If you go with the sun roof, it's even more important to balance the SO, so go for it. Well, I'm getting killed over my car anyway, so I'll take the fall for you also. The list of the things I may have not mentioned at home is starting to be longer than the truths shared, starting with color, invoice, MPG's, taxing in finland, "no I'm not shipping it back to Europe, I'll just sell it off", yeah, just visited the forum, I really don't post there ever, and so on. How I stay married, is a wonder even to me. I would kill him if he bought a car, and told me a month later via email, what he got. Oh well, guess it's the light and shiny personality he likes then. |
