help me pick my new wheels!

ive gotten tired of my lm reps lately and looking to switch to something else.

im thinking about either Enkreuz H8R or H10R, regardless of which style it would have a chrome step lip, either brushed aluminum or mirror silver finish, 19x9 et10 and 19x10 et15, with titanium rivets.

here's pics of both. the H8R in the images is actually mirror silver, someone oopsed when captioning the image.






h10r



help me decide im putting order in Monday!?!?!

Chrome lip will give you plenty of contrast.

so gunmetal barrel instead of matte black?

this set with mirro silver is just amazing.



i dont think the matte gunmetal would look that great on carbon black. that blue m3 is pretty dark, but the wheels just look, decent.

nevermind, it must be the shot that makes them look decent, this shot makes them looks amazing.

I went with gunmetal centers on my carbon black and I really do not like the look... just not enough contrast imo. I say go for the mirror silver or just brushed aluminum.

You should've specified your car color for all of those who don't know.

I know it's carbon black, and I'm voting against gunmetal. Go for the lightest one. It will look pretty good.
