What do you guys think about these wheels
***Warning***, there 20's, so you guys that hate 20" wheels please don't comment.
Anyway, I'm trying to narrow down my list of wheels, even though i'm months from buying. I think i've narrowed it down to these 3, and i'd like your opinions on them.
1. American Racing Shelby Razors
I like the design and color of these but don't like that they only come in 9" wide.
2. Venti V54 Retro
Love these, there like a cleaner Foose Nitrious, but I hate that the front has the deep lip too. Also afraid there too, um "Bling"
3. American Eagle 025
Love em, but again the front has the deep lip and it only comes in 8.5" But I like that I can get them for under $250.
So... Whatcha think?

RE: What do you guys think about these wheels
Are these all cast rims or two piece - welded in centers? I would go with cast or forged - whatever design you go with. Used to be in the rim making business and two piece rims cannot hold up to hard bumps very well - will go out of round very quickly. Especially anything bigger than an 18" which has no significant amount of tire for cushion. Just a thought...
