Well i am pretty sure you know what my favorite is, but either the 543 or 542 are the best wheels imo. The techart is a sweet wheel, and as far as quality goes its very strong, techart puts all their wheels through the european wheel test. You really cant beat any those wheels so what it comes down to is your personal preference, i choose the 543's for my dads car because they are different---there are a ton of 542 and formua owners, and i like to stand out!
good luck Lou

TechArt 19's. IMHO, the GT's are the most aggressive looking wheel when you see them in person (if that's what you are looking for).
Good luck. Definitely a good problem to have!

Something to consider
Interesting post on the GT3/GT2 board. If your interested in more than bling and want added performance out of your wheel selection...lighter is better, which indicates 18" wheels!!!

Watt,
Out of interest I did a calculation on the effect of the lightened wheels on the rotational inertia of the wheel/tire combo and it's relative effects on rotational acceleration as part of the overall acceleration for a GT2.
Basically, the 34lbs you saved from the wheels, is equivalent to about 100lbs saved off the weight of the vehicle in terms of the effect on acceleration.
