Need some opinons.. Please.

Ive been looking at these specific sets of rims for a while, but im very indecisive right now.. just wanted to know what everybody else thinks.

What should I go with?

Motegi FF5 Hyper Black

Motegi MR7 Hyper Black

Motegi FF7 Glossy Black

Kyowa KR518 Chrome Machined lip

Kyowa KR210 Glossy Black



What offset would be better 40 or 45?

Ive rounded it down to KR210, KR518, and Motegi FF5.. Now I have to find out which of the 3 I want... ...

Should I go with a 40 or 45 offset?

Kyowa KR210 Glossy Black. I like the stealth look that black provides.

I love the KR518. Im trying to find them relatively cheap for my car. The best i can find them is for $500 for a set of 4 and then another $125 for shipping. If anyone knows where i can get them for cheaper please let me know

I would go with the Kyowa KR210 or the Motegi FF7, I'm more partial to 5 spokes though

Although, looking again I'm not too sure on the solid black wheel

Also 40 or 45 doesn't matter, you wont be able to see the difference...although for ME personally 40 would've been better because then I might have been able to actually fit my stupid center caps on the wheel.

Since they dont make the FF5s in Glossy Black.. wont be getting those.. I really want black on black rims... Rules that and any other rim that they dont make in black out.. One step closer......

Hmmm I like black with a chrome lip. But the bolt pattern on the SS S/C is so gay it's hard to get anything good.

i was already thinking of the kyowa kr518 as a possible replacement for my stock rims. Those things look sweet!! (definitely head turners)

I've decided on getting mag wheels if they'll make any that fit eventually.
