Which wheel should I get? ASAP

I am in a hard place guys and gals. I have got to buy wheels this week and was wondering which one to get. The wires are starting to show.
I narrowed it down to:
5Zigen 5ZR Copse (supersilver finish)
Racing Hart C5's.
The size I am going with is 17' with 205 40 for the profile.
Being that they are the same price I can't decide, I like them both.
Help me choose one of them.

Well, if I had to choose between the two, these would be my considerations:

5Zigen 5ZR Copse (supersilver finish)

PROS:
Nice Design (looks like more expensive 3 pc. wheels)

CONS:
Pain to clean
Damn heavy for 17x7 wheels ==> 23 lbs.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rh Evolution C5 Evo's

-- I'm assuming you are talking about RH Evolution C5's.
The Racing Hart Type C5's are 3 pc. wheels, have been discontinued,
and are definetly not in the same price range.

PROS:
Clean Look
Easy to clean

CONS:
They may be a little heavy .... couldn't find the weight

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I am wrong and you are really talking about Racing Hart Type C5 wheels, I would take those in an
instant if you can get them for the same price. If you are leaning towards the 5Zigen's, you may want
to take a look at the Tenzo RS5's. They are really similar to 5Zigen's, but only weigh 20.3 lbs. That
can make a big difference, and I'm sure you can probably get those for about the same price.

Mind you, I am working on assumptions here, as you were not very specific with your question.

Good Luck! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
