Wheel decision Help! Urgen

I purchased Moven S5R wheels and unfortunatly they did not fit my car So now i have to return them and now i have to get something else. Sucks cuz i really loved the Sr with the big lip and black center

I need to decide by wednesday!
My choices are:

1) Brabus S replica (step lip) black on the inside and polished center (Something different). pros: $350 cheaper and its differents, cons: step lip makes the back look smaller than the front.

2) Brabus VI replica black center polished lip. Pros: i want a black center and it has a lip in the front and back (albeit small). Cons: more expensive, everyone has it.

Hopefully cigalert doesn't mind im posting pics of his car

Which ones should i chose and why? I can't make up my mind

i say mono S because it is the newest wheel in the brabus line up. every one has the mono 6. mono S is beginning to grow onto to me. it would look pretty clean with those wheels and slammed

I like both, but due to the fact that there are many with Brabus Mono VI rep.'s, I'd say go with the S.

Either way you go, it won't be a bad choice.

I actually wanted the Monoblock VI 2-piece before, but when I got on here, realized that a lot of people had them.

Mono S just because it's so much more unique. I see a Mono VI on a Benz almost everyday.

I'll brush paint them for you they don't need spacers.

yea, I can get those black ones, but it'll need more ppl.

personally I would go with the mono S and powder coat them flat black like the Brabus Rocket concept.

Do you guys think the Mono S will become as popular as the Mono VI? The Mono S's are growing on me as well. I want something with a nice rear lip though.

I voted Mono S too. Those wheels look great, agree that the others have become a little 'common'...

Good luck...

Mono VI, cuz the S doesn't have lip, why buy another rim when there is no lip!!?

I vote for the Mono VI because there can only be one Highlander!!! Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.
