Wait for Racing Harts or get other wheels? *updated*

Thanks for your opinions! I'm really glad I waited






OK I ordered these wheels from Dazz Motorsports:

But they won't be in until early June. I really don't want to wait around for them, and the new Velox wheels look pretty cool. I definately like the Racing Hart better, but I want rims now! Plus I will save about 300-400 if I get the Velox. What do you think about these wheels on my silver coupe?:
<- I like these the best out of the three.



Here is my car:

If you want them, wait. I waited a few weeks for mine... it was worth it.

Yeah I think I'm going to order the Velox. If I order the Racing Harts, I will have to wait an extra month and pay more :P

I can get the Velox for $195 a wheel, and the Racing Harts are $230 a wheel. Both are 18s. Plus the Velox are lightweight. I think I'll sit on it for a day.

Depending on what you going for... If your going for looks and style I would definately wait on the Racing Harts....But if your going for speed then you could use the lighter wheels and all three of the Velox look killer and would look awesome on a silver coupe...

i am partial to forged wheels, very light and very strong. if i were planning on keeping my civic for a long time, i would personally go with advan (yokohama). however, very light + very strong = very expensive + very hard to come by = GO FIGURE. in the end, trust me and go with your heart. pick the rims you really like the best, even if you have to wait. i will be so worthwhile in the end. take it from the king of living a life of regret.
