They look ok. I think it's the center/hub design that throws me off. Not too bad of prices in silver, but that chromed price is steep.

I don't know how much do you wanna spend but check out

http://www.racinghart.com/wheels_rac.asp

the CP035/M5/M6 gives you a very nice lip... and for that extra money, you are getting a MUCH better rim...

Hey, check this out... this website sells wheels/tires with NO tax!!!

http://www.skperformance.com/WHEELS/tuner.htm

The price in the chart is for wheel only NO tires.... but they'll work with you... I almost bought wheels and tires from them... but went with something else at the last minute (a set of used "Work" wheels).... Had nothing to do with their service... they were actually really cool... willing to ship for free too... if I had paid with a credit card... or some thing like that... and again NO taxes....

Persoanlly I don't care much for KMC wheels... ... Someone told me they are suppose to be really lite... but, if it's lite and casted, then at 19" it might be a weak wheel. May bend easily??? Just my opinion. It just makes you wonder what they had to do (or skimp) to take weight off...

what do you guys suggest? I am thinking of making the purchase either thursday or friday, so suggestions are welcomed. Im not a fan of chrome, especially on silver, and i like "racey look." I like the C2's but dont know how theyll look in 18s, of course id get replicas dont wanna put more than 1500 in them, but i do get them at wholesale cause I used to have shares in an import store. So please let me know asap, and could someone PHOTOSHOP THE SUICIDES--WHEELS IN THE ABOVE LINK?

doesnt look like either of those have the right offset. looks as thought the muse is the only rim with a high enough offset. i agree, though, teh neo's and the mesh's are some sweet ass looking rims.

They do make them in 19x8 w/ +45 offset which is just right but then just for a little more clearence shave them down to +48 which is definately perfect even with slamming. I called my friend there and they can do that!!!!!
