GTU vs. SF Challenge?? HELP!

As the fantastic members of G35driver have NEVER steered me wrong before... what are the opinions for this choice?

I've pretty much settled on Gold/Bronze wheels for my car (03 LR coupe). I'm going with a mild drop (350z H Techs) for comfort and necessity up here in New England. However I'm faced with quite a dilemma...

Volk GTU's or SF Challenges???? The GTU's would win hands down if they came in 19's, but they only come in 18's biggest. The SF's are friggin badass and come in 19's, but NO ONE has the GTU's. HELP! Cast your vote!!

GTU's


SF's

LOL! I'm DEF leaning GTU's myself. The ride comfort is a big thing with me as well.

What kinda off sets you think with these? I'm thinking sick but not too sick.

volk needs to make the GTU is bigger diameters. It is by far the best looking wheel they make, IMO.

If you like the GTU that much why don't you go with SF winning in gold or bronze? I think the differences are very suttle.

"Suttle"? LOL

The difference is HUGE if you know what you're looking for.

I guess 18s aren't that bad if. I'm seriously leaning towards the GTU's.

DAMMIT VOLK, MAKE GTUs IN 19s!!!!!!!!!!!!
