Maya RT5 or Work VSXX

Which one would you pick?

Edit: I added my car so you can picture which one will look better. Also on the way is ING+1 replica body kit and Dspec/Htech combo for suspension. Thanks for all your input.

Edit: people who's not feeling the gold, i might do a custom order on the VSXX with silver and all black rivets. which style will match my AB Coupe now?

i'd go for the Work's because the build quality is better, and the mesh attracts me a bit more. there won't be such a big gap between the brake caliper and the rim. Work builds strong, lightweight, attention to detail wheels.

btw, Maya is actually a JDM wheel just re-badged in the US by Dazz. the original comp. is Trafficstar. they're a very heavy cast wheel though.

I really want the Work but I'm not feeling the gold shade, i like the gold of the Volk SF Winnings. That's why I'm opening my mind and branch to different style for my Athens Blue. I can get them both good price.

Work VSXX = $2400
Maya RT5 = $ 2400

Is that a good price for set of 4?

^ i'm truly sorry, but it's very hard to believe. post up the shops names. Work is more expensive than Volks. Sf Winnings aren't exactly cheap either. they're apart of the Fine Forged line of Volk's which are the highest priced.

also, Work has increased their prices for 2006. certain shops still sell Work for the previous price at their own cost though.

They don't want me to put their name for the Maya (Sorry), you are right they mentioned that Work will be raising price any time soon that is why they're doing this last sale, also Volk did raiseds their price already. you can check out the price of Work http://www.my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173206.
Ok with both prices which one will you pick?

On the Athens blue, I don't think gold would look good. Especially that shade of gold. Of course I could be wrong since I've never seen a pic before. I've always liked the RT5s, but only in 20". 19s seem a bit too small (how funny) for that style.

Work because of strength, and quality. the Maya's are nice, but very heavy. if weight & strength don't bother you, get the Maya's.
