Rt5

I'm actually a fan of the RT5's. I've never been a fan of rims that look like the DP6's.

I think the five spoke design always accentuates the size of rims. I also like the split in the spokes. My vote goes for those.

see im going for the mean, clean cut, flashy chrome look

the dpk's and dp10s are cut
they are out of the picture

the dp12s still have some appeal

but its really down 2 the dp6's and rt5s,
im leanin a lil towards the dp6s

you guys said it would make the rims look bigger, sounds interesting.
its a nice clean look. i think 19's might look real nice

lets just read a few more opinions then its time to pick!

Of those the DP6 is the best. Going to look gangsta no matter what in that brilliant chrome though.

Of all the choices, I liked the RT5 best (looks like ASPEC), then the DP6...but you said you want flashy, so that's definitely the DP6...be sure to post pics.

I like the RT5 as far as rim design but the DP6 is more bling. I'm not a fan of chrome personally but good luck with your decision.

i still don't think they beat a-spec rim's look. it's just right. but u want 19. hm....RT5 if i have to choose. i think you can find something better than that tho. I like the RonJon one. spokes all the way out to the edge.

If it has to be Motegi's do the RT-5 ... But the Foose is the best looking wheel IMO..These are 20's..IMO the TL looks the best on 20's and if you put 19's you need to drop it to give it an aggressive look, anything else is too small..

you know what
today i went to place the order for the dp6's, but you can only get them in 18s and 20's, i didnt want to do the 20's so i just screw it, im not paying that amount of money for something i dont back 100% and like

so now the search continues

any suggestions, something similar to the dp6's would be great
that style but better looking
