help me decide which work wheels to order??!!!

im so torn between which wheels to order... ARGBLARBLAR

im getting an ultramarine FR-S... with 18 inch wheels.. which shouldi get??? (assuming money isnt an issue)



U guys can make color suggestions too, but right now im thinking bronze is good or matte gunmetal because i dont need to spend much time cleaning hah.

im leaning towards #1 (the xd9)... but still undecided

#2, since you don't like to spend a lot of time cleaning!

Just keep in mind that you're not going to get as much lip with #1 with your offset. It'll look more like #4.

I like #2.

#3 is good also, but there are a lot of cheaper wheels that look the same and weight the same or less (Enkei PF01 for instance).

#4 is meh. Seen it too often.

I personally think the CR-Kai is the best looking wheel on the market, so my vote is for #3.

It's tough, but I think my vote goes for #1 as well (in bronze) since I'm not a fan of skinny looking spokes. Where you going to get these from?
