I am really stuck on these rims for my G, no matter what other rims I look at, I keep coming back to these. My biggest dillema is the finish of my DG. Please help me!



PS: I love both cars, props to both owners (I hope you dont mine your cars in my comparison.)

they both look good... Wish I could have gotten those rims instead... They just didn't have the size I had wanted... which was 10.5 in any color... oh well...

i say GM. you have consider what your rims will look like when the car is moving. The GM def looks better. I do agreed with everyone that the merc silver does look better thou when the car is still.

i had gt-7s in merc silver. i got sick off it and switched to GM sf challenges. So i kinda had the same problem

the silver looks better in the pictures but the silvers are also shining in the sun while the gunmetals are in the shade of the car. just another thing to think about.

i know, not the same rim, but it shows the polished lip in the sun with gunmetal center. depends on what you want, classy or aggressive lookin.

Both are great. You loose the looks of the gun metal in a picture.
The gun metal sure does match the diamond g. May be this a better pic of gun metal.
