I'm looking to upgrade my current setup (19" Miros m6 reps) to some 20" staggered rims (probably 8.5 and 10 in the rear) later on; the center is going to be either glossy black with a chrome or polished lip) .. I might keep the Miros for a winter setup since its wrapped in some good all season tires but anyway I can't decide on which rims to get I really like the iForged Fabulous rims since it looks like the Ashanti 128 .. but the ICONZ 930z is alittle cheaper and it has a similar design, made of the same alumnium, and is a 3 peice wheel ... I know nerweezy had a set of the iForged which looked real nice I need the wheels to last a long time especially in NY the roads aren't the best :/ which set do you guys like better and which one are built better by experience or another reviews? Thanks

None of the above for me also but thought it was strange that you're including a 21" rims in there yet NY's roads aren't the best. Anyhow, go with what you like; doesn't matter what we think. It's always better to be different; like Cal from Soncis likes to say, be a trendsetter, not a follower.

I have to admit i catch myself staring at my 166's every now and again - they look agressive as hell but are still factory so you dont loose that "yeah, its a pretty nasty car, no big deal" effect.

If you are going to spend the dough to get custom made rims - why not add BBS LMs to the list?
