Alright, I'm finally down to two 19" wheel choices, final opinions please!

Hey guys, as some of you know I've been searching forever for the perfect 19's for my Black G35 coupe, and I've found 2 good deals:

19" Volk Racing SF-Challenge Diamond Black with used Bridgestone Potenza S03 Pole Position Tires for $2,600 shipped




OR

19” Sevas S-Star, Black with chrome lip in new Federal Tires for $1,700 shipped




I know Volks are in a whole different catergory in terms of quality, show factor, etc, but is it worth the extra $900? I'm sick of looking and researching, I just want some new rims for the new year Comments are appreciated, thanks guys! Merry Christmas!

Personally, I'd get the S-Stars and save the $900 for something like an exhaust or something

I think the Sevas also. Very clean rim, and will match your car very well. Just my opinion though.

Go with the Sevas.

I am in the minority here since the SF's are so popular but I think the cutout "ribbon" pattern on the inside lip of the Volks looks terrible. It makes the wheel look entirely too "busy".

common for a reason

Get the Sevas and save the money for other stuff. They look good. And did I mention you save $900?
Where are you getting these quotes if you don't mind me asking?

Volks Are To Common, Plus I Really Dont Like Them, Llok At The New Racing Hart Whels They Are So Much Nicer, And I Dont Like The Sevas Either.

I like the gunmetals on that pearl white. Amazing combo. I'd go with the Challenges because of the weight. Unless the others are lighter.
