go for the one that is lightest and strongest.
no need for HK roads they will still bend and will cost you arm and a leg to get a new wheel like billy 1.
just get what ever looks nice from Taiwan rims and if it bends just get other 1 they so cheap.
If it was mikes M3 they I will go for the lightest and strongest.

I got to agree with you, i thought the same thing that Jap wheel will look crap on our car.

But after few members changed to volks, works..etc...They look ok to me now and definitely very different from what we see normally.
So is it good or bad? I dont know..if you dare to be different
they no such thing as good or bad.
it just matter of taste
also it if a euro car get jap rim, most ppl think that our cars look cheap but for me I dont care what ppl think as long as I like them.
In the end it you thats driving the car.
So etchu get what every you think looks nice

yes, and I will need to win a lot more in horse racing to fuel this.

BTW dont sell your old wheels keep them as a spare at AK so if any of use has a blow out we can use them for temp until we get the bad 1 fixed.
but if you can get $5000 for them on car28 then sell them.

I liked RS for it's narrow spokes so I can show the brakes better, but it's quite racey while ours are not porsche like billy's so I was think it would be nice if there is a lip for RS. then walala there is this RS-D when I do more web browsing at home.
