rim color/size help

RE: rim color/size help
Thats a tough call.Deciding on wheels these days is like picking a pin from a hay stack.There are a lot of choices.It comes down to style and what you like.Then you have more options on the wheel finish.I've seen the hyper coat finish on Konigs wheels and really like the translusent look it has.
Pros and cons if you run 20's .You really need some adjustable dampners to compensate for the feedback you get on the road.I've run 20's and the best part is the handling on twisties.Good luck whatever you decide.
IMO you can't beat a chrome finish wheel on Vista Blue.

I currently have a set of these in 18's in black waiting for me to decide on tires. First off, I wouldn't get the 20's. The design of these wheels is such that the center is practically solid cast. In other words they are HEAVY. My packing slip said 30lb. I can't imagine what the 20's would be like. With regards to color, for the blue I would think thechrome would look the best but I think the black makes the wheel look deeper. I guess what I'm trying to say is the wheel, because its so solid in the middle, gets lost in itself without the sharp contrast beween the black and the chrome. Another thing, the cs centers are ugly IMO, but the factory pony centers do snap in--but loosely. I'm going to try copious amounts of silicone in behind to help hold them in. Hopefully it will work. And, unfortunately, it looks like these wheels will only accept a pull through type valve stem. The hole is so recessed I've found no bolt on that will fit which stinks because I was hoping to use some flush mounts. A crappy pic but it was just a quick test fit...
