Any opinions?
Numbers are 1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9

I have a silver coupe, would bronze look better than silver?
Thanks.

PS thanks jodster for noticing the error

2 and 6 are the same wheel.

IMO bronze doesn't look good on silver. Go with silver or gunmetal.

Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

Damn, thats a huge price range in those choices, I hope you realize that... I like #3, the LE37T, but they're about $450 each.

I don't know if you've done just picture hunting or seen prices too, but here's approximately what all those are gonna run, these are per wheel in 17":
GT-P $375-$450
Mean 6 $150
LE37T $450-$500
TE37 $400-$430
C5 $175-$225
They look like ADRs - $150
Holes - $175
Helium - $150-$175
CR Evo - $175-$235
Hopefully you realize some of those wheels are incredibly expensive... if you didn't, you now do.

I personally like 1 2 3 and 5. Money isn't that big of an issue right now. Just opinions.

Number 6 is Konig Zeige

I heard quite a few compliments about Racing Harts', I think I will go with C 5 for it's look and price. Anyone know where is a good place to buy them ?

Everyone and their momas are getting C5s. J/P I do see alot of car around here in Cincy that have C5s though. If i was to get RH wheels, I would get C2 Evos.

GT-Ps aren't really all that light... the GT series is on the heavy side of Volks... around 17-19 lbs. There very showy rims, but the Racing ones like the TE37 and CE28N are considerably lighter. The fact that the GTs are 2 piece instead of 1 adds some weight.
