I'm stuck on two 20" wheels types:

Radenergie R-10's in black or the Maya MRS in the Anthracite finish.

My car is black. I know it is a personal choice, but whioch one would look better?

Thanks.

I guess I'd have to vote for the R10s since I have them. I like Maya wheels but I wanted something different than the normal five spoke.

Here are a few pics of my car if it'll help you make a decision. Please excuse the last pic...my car was very dirty in that photo.

I like them both but I would get the Maya MRS. I believe Charles from Wheelauthaus has them in stock?

My wheels are supposed to be black but you're right, they look more graphite or dark gunmetal. I was very surprised and slightly disappointed when I opened the box but I've grown to love them.

The mirrors would look great but they cost to much. I want to finish my Dinan mods first and then we'll see.
