Wheel Suggestions

Okay, I need some help. I'm going to be selling my 18" FLIK Wasps soon and I'm trying to decide what wheels to get. My car is JB/B and I want to go with silver wheels. I got a line on a set of lightly used Volks so all of these are within the same price range.

17" Kosei K1 (new)
17" Volk TE-37 (used)
18" Centerline RPM (new)

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :smile:

The Flik's are a hot wheel on your all Black - stick with 'em

I agree, keep the Fliks. I have 17 inchers on my BRG MCS and I get tons of comments about them. But, my two cents goes w/ the Centerlines. Get 'em in a polished finish and they'll look nice in contrast to your all black ride.

TE-37 are pretty light...I think they are either 13 or 14lbs and they are high quality wheels.

If you don't buy them you could always forward me the info. I would love to have a set of Volks TE-37s..
