Need ur opinion guys?...

So as the title says, I have had these wheels for a short time now. I bought them new but I think I wanna get something else. I think I wanna go with a mesh style wheel. So I would like ur guys opinion. Should I keep them or put them up on the black market?

Blue, take some pics closer up.

Nothing wrong with a 5-spoke. Now, if you don't like the shine, then........

If you're looking for a mesh style wheel you can go with the Varrstoen ES1 or the new ES7's. The contrast of the hyper silver finish of either will look awesome against your paint.

Thanks bro...they both are very nice and you are rite about the hyper silver going with my color. I really like the ES1 but it looks like they only have a 9.5 and up width..I don't wanna go to aggressive and I'm not sure if they will clear my brembos..

Cazio...thanks for your opinion bro..I know you like them but I am feeling the varrstoans though...

It seems like a really wide wheel to run up front, but it's all about the offset and if you don't mind stretching a little to avoid rubbing.
