High Rollers: Wheel Opinion

So Im debating whether to go with a sexy, well known wheel like the Leon Hardiritt Orden or go with something new to the scene with the Luxury Abstract Grassor.

Whats your guys' opinion?

**Luxury Abstract Grassor

Pros: Nobody has em
Cons: Worried its not gonna be a big hit for the car




--or--

**Leon Hardiritt Orden

Pros: Sexy wheel
Cons: Rodney (leche) already rolled on em

You don't like VIP Modulars? Interesting taste you have

As sexy as the Ordens are, they are pretty common when it comes to expensive ass wheels.

im not a huge fan of either wheel... personally i would go with some VIP Modulars (but you dont like their designs) or something made by Weds. I love the Kranze line that Weds makes

I'm going to wait until I get a high-end car before I get some baller wheels like that.

Can you imagine those on a Continental GT?

ordens go for about $3500 in 19s. How much to the Grassor go for? Do you have a Type S? What color is your car? and for the rest of the guys don't the Vip Modular wheels go for around 6k?

Back to the topic. I would go with the Ordens. Not a fan of the Grassor, the design on the wheel spokes turns me away.

Ive already narrowed it down to those two wheels lol I appreciate the recommendations but Im already past that.

Don't get me wrong, VIP Modulars do have some nice sets but I think their wheel designs are a little too over the top for the kind of look Im going for.

Weds Kranze has some nice looking wheels too, but again, not what Im going for

Yea, I would go with the Ordens, But and BUT.. I don't think they clear brembos. Website specs dont offer high disk.

They do offer em for sure. I found a set where the fronts are bbk friendly

I do LOVE the Ordens as well, but Im sure almost everyone who frequents Azine knows Rodney's epic TL. In my opinion, his car became iconic in regards to a "VIP style" TL. Im not gonna lie, the direction Im taking this car was inspired by Rodney's TL, and as much as I already love the Ordens, I need youre guys' opinion if you think Im just copying him.

Heres a link to his for sale thread for all you guys who dont know his car:
