I'll be down in Southern CA the end of this week and really want to purchase rims for my GS430 while I'm there. (Better selection) Here's what I'm looking at and I'm hoping somebody could help me finalize my decision:


Kreuzer Series V 19x9 Front 19x10 Rear


AVS Model 7 19x9 Front 19x10 Rear


Dronell Model D-05 18x9 Front 18x10 Rear


Dronell Model D-06 19x9 Front 19x10 Rear


LSportline Model III Evo 18x8.5 Front 18x9.5 Rear

Thanks for letting a guy try to make this decision with help.

j,

if you like spoke wheels, get the kreuzer V, new model, less cheezy fakes. model 7 is very nice too, but too many copy cats. may be boise, ID is not as bad as LA.
dronnell has good quality, but lack of original design concept.

ls sport evo in 18s would make the wheel even smaller becuase of its design.

Kreuzer V = New, not many people have it, no knock-offs (yet)

AVS Model 7 = Old school style, been around for a while, tons of knock-offs...played out.

Dronell = Knock off styling, but good quality.

Lsportline = Played out style.

If it were me, I would get the Kreuzer's...

Get the Lsportlines in a bigger size if you can. They are the best looking IMHO.
