New wheels???
New wheels???
Hi,
I'm new on the forum. I have a 2003 MC silver w/blk roof. Looking for some advice and help in deciding which wheels (black) to go with. I've narrowed it down to three... Which would be the best to go with, i.e. quality, performance, looks, etc. And any other suggestions for the black (8-10 spoke look).

Or
Enkei EDR 9 http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-rim...ck%20Flat.html
Or
Kyowa 626 http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-rim...tml#wheel_more

Thanks

Can't help when it comes to picking the right wheel for you, it's a personal taste issue. But what you could do is look at the photos of all the cars and wheel combos listed thru out this forum and then you can make a better decision as to the wheels for you. Personally i don't care for any of your choices, but i am a fan of black or gun metal gray colors. Good luck.

I didn't see the weights of any of those wheels on those links, but that's certainly something to consider if you're planning on moving from 15s (?) to 17s. I happen to like the wheels you already have; they look good on the silver/black combo.
If your wheels are the 15" R82 8-spoke (aka Silverstone), they weigh about 15.2# each. The 17" version of that style (R85 S Spoke; aka LeMans) weigh about 25.1# each. That's a total of almost 20# in extra wheel weight for the Justa to get rolling and stop rolling. Thus, if you want to go with 17" aftermarket wheels on your Justa, minimizing wheel weight might be a fairly high priority.
Those wheels are essentially the same style. Koning and Enkei are familiar, but I've never heard of Kyowa.
