Rim choice....

Ok So I need some help. Which do you like better?? It will be going on an 03 Brilliant Silver Sedan

Enkei RP03 in 19x8.5+42 (with 5mm spacer in rear)


OR

HP Racing HPR-5 in 19x8.5+38


Enkei's are forged, I don't think the HP's are. Hp's are a cheaper route that I am considering, but still unsure of which I should go with. HP has got the lip, but the Enkei's are sick. Just want some peoples opinions. Thanks in advance

lol ok I appreciate your opinion. I'm an east coast dude myself, NJ. What would you suggest something similar to them.

Nah. Sticking to 19's. Don't want to lose performance.

well first figure out if your going w/ gun metal or chrome. lip or no lip, because you have 2 differ type of rims styles.

narrow it down and let me know.

Well Both are silver (enkei's may seem a little darker). I would like to get a lip but the no lips look bigger for 19's

For a BS Sedan I'd say something in silver or chrome with a lip

here are pictures of each rim on an 03 Brilliant Silver Sedan. It can help you decide to actually see what it would look like. Sorry for whom ever these cars belong to. I know the sedan with the Enkei's is SocalTed's.
