I am looking to get new wheels, and cant decide between either the oem 19s or stern st1 face III, Everyone says that the stern wheels are really heavy, but as I dont race my car, I am not that concerned about the performance aspect.. Does anyone have any opinons on which one I should get? Here is a pic of the stern wheels



And the oem 19s are the coupe ones..

Please tell me which ones i should get!

 

I would go OEM 19's before purchasing cheap aftermaket cast single piece 19's but that is your choice in the end.

 

Are they really that cheap? I mean, I have no idea of quality of either wheel, but I have to be honest and say I like the look of the stern wheel much better than the OEM ones, but I have read mixed reviews of the stern so I cant decide..

 

From the few pairs I've seen in person, the machining on the lips leaves alot to be desired, and the finish on the lips as well as the centers is of low quality. The fake rivets also are a drawback IMO, and on your sedan, the lips aren't going to be very big anyways, so they'll look like a cheaper version of the OEM 19's.

 

I'd rather sport stocks than Sterns.

 

+1.. dont be cheap...

 

I like the Sterns better. Im thinking about getting them myself. 19s hyperblack. Ive just been saving to get it all done at once. Tires, lowering springs, spacers, cambers, etc. I have tucked stocked 18's and sick of it. Also, I havent figured out the math when it comes to offset/spacer/lowering, to avoid rubbing or rolling. Ive yet to see anyone with that setup to ask what they are rolling.

 

go with the oems

 

g37 19's with spacers

 

thread from the dead. and i'd still go with oem 19s.

 

oems... easy.

 

Go with the OEM's and let this thread die in peace

 

When I was in the market for wheels... a rep told me to check out the Sterns.. same wheel you are loooking at... I am so GLAD that I DIDN'T get them! That rep was FULL of FAIL! I ended up with Vossen's.. for now thta is...

 

piaa rozza's!

 

O man... I wanted to get those wheels.. but the Vendor couldn't his hands on them.. such BS... then at ImportFaceOff when I park to "show" the G a car parked 2 spaces down and had them.. I was pissed!

Sets your ride off... looks good
