Ditto for pricing.
The Mayas are prob. double what the C4's cost.

you are right.

make up your mind first about budget, then look for the wheels in that price tile, it will save you at least 1/2 of the time doing wheel research for your car = getting the wheels faster = more time to cheer

I was in the wheel market for those exact two rims. I narrowed down my research to the Maya STM and the Racing Hart C4's (multipiece). You can see who won in my picture. In the end the budget took over, so I had to get the Racing Hart C4's. But I have no regrets...at all! I love these shoes! I've had a chance to look at both in person, and I'm not just saying this because I have the C4's, but if I had to choose all over again, I would pick the C4's hands down. They look more aggressive to me. I haven't had any problems with them being too soft. Plus they look bada$$! My setup is 19x9 26et, and 19x10 20et (custom offset). If you need more pictures of the wheels, shoot me a pm.


G's up....

Does anyone have any experience ordering from these guys? They look like they've got some pretty sick deals.

i prefer the c4's over the stm's also. i always thought the mayas looked a bit too "meshy" but are definitely classy and aggressive looking, if not more so.

Question for the person with the MAYA STMs or anybody else who has them on their G.
Were you able to install the stock tire pressure sensors on these wheels?

The wheel itself is NOT equipped with that feature, check with your local tire shop to see whether they can do it. Disconnect the function is NOT a big deal at all, just like finger nail, you can cut it at any time w/o affecting your anything
