I seem to hear an echo lol but for good reason. The top ones look pretty much like the stock ones, it's not a big departure, so if your not a big fan of the oem wheels, you'll probably get sick of those quickly too. The second ones look like they belong on an "baller's" escalade.
HRE
Champion
Techart
OZ
Dymag

I'm looking for opinions. I want a clean look and I'm wondering if the deep dish will work.
Here is a few of our designs:

I'm looking for opinions. I want a clean look and I'm wondering if the deep dish will work. I saw the first set of rims on a Silver Turbo and they looked awesome! 20x12 rear 20x8.5 front

Since my car is black, I was looking at a chrome barrel, brushed finish with black on the sides of the spokes.
If anyone has pictures of a black turbo with rims, please post. If you know of an existing post with wheels, please post.
Thanks in advance!!!!!

Be careful with black lips on black car......IMHO it gets lost with the body.

I like chrome lip/brushed centers as in the 360forged below.
