I need your opinions on rims....

im looking to sell my current set of rims and hopefully pick up something nice for this summer...at the moment im stuck between 2 sets of rims..so now im turning to you guys for your opinions..im gonna get them in a satin silver with a polished lip/chromed lip..



or





the sizes that im looking at would be 19x10 or 10.5 in the rears, as my fenders have been rolled a bit...9.5 isnt cutting it anymore...lol

which do you guys prefer?..the skinnies or the fatter ones?


thanks.

First ones Fa Sho!!! you have a White car, you cant put chrom on it like that second one, brushed with a polished lip like the first one.

2nd dont look to cool, you can find it on a bunch of cars on here if you keep your eye open at these sig's

First ones, although I'd like to see it on the car, or any photoshops.
Goliath is right about the 2nd one being to common on alot of cars, alot of knock offs of that style as well.

What brand/model rim is the first one?

haha yep. im definately getting the forgiato now!! with a 235/35/19 for fronts and a 275/30/19 for the rear...im gonna try and fit a 19x10.5 in the rear....possible? or is a 19x10 max??

good thing is that they take about 5-6 weeks from the time of order placement...they make rims to your needs...hopefully i'll be the first one in BC with these rims.
