Help me choose my rims! 19” Sevas vs. 20” Ruffs

Hey guys, I’ve narrowed down my rim choices for my black G35 Coupe, all these rims and tires are new:

19” Sevas S-Star, Black with chrome lip in Federal 245/35/19 and 265/30/19 tires. The wheels are 19x8.5 with a +20 offset and 19x9.5 with a +20 offset. Bolt pattern 5x114.3, the price is $1700 shipped





OR

20” Ruff Racing 280s In Black finish with chrome lip with Kumho SPT KU-31 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 Tires. The wheels are 20x8.5 with a +35 offset and 20x10 with a +25 offset. Bolt pattern 5x114.3, the price is $1600 shipped





Can anyone tell me about the quality of Ruff vs. Sevas, the wheel weights, any experiences etc? Or if you know anywhere else I can get them cheaper, let me know . Or should I just bite the bullet and get some Volks? I really appreciate it, thanks.

both look cast. not bad looking, but quality wise im not sure. id be weary of potholes...one bend and your SOL. only thing is wheels are cheap enough so you can replace em and still spend less than buying volks...

I like the Sevas more. I don't like the rounded look of the spokes on the Ruffs

SEVAS- you'll be glad you got chrome lips and not that clearcoated polish b*llsh*t. I hate my tenzo gt-5 lips

Sevas for sure

But I would recommend stepping it up, saving a bit, and buying a better quality wheel.
