Talking RIM DECISION POLL

Hey Guys,

I'm gonna get new rims-18s. I have 3 choices I've narrowed down to, all black!

The choices are:
Deep Dish Bullits w/Chrome Lip
Saleen Replicas(SN95 Version)
FR500s w/Chrome Lip

What do you guys think? And remember all of these would be in black. BTW my car is Vista Blue. Thanks for the opinions!!!!

Also you guys think going to 18s is gonna make my car noticably slower?

DECISION MADE: FR500s

***QUESTION: WHAT OFFSET AM I SUPPOSED TO GET FOR THESE RIMS?

IS THERE A CHOICE?

Damn, I gotta say I was leaning toward the other two but man do those look good. You guys run deep dish front AND rear or just rear?

You will not feel the difference with 18s. I went from 17s to 18s and couldn't tell the difference in speed.

Cool. So bullitts are the more popular choice here? 55%! I figured it would go another way
