Default ISS Forged RX-10 19" or Vossen CV1 19" Gunmetal

Ok CL, I have finally narrowed my choice down to two wheels. Please give me your thoughts on which you think would look best on my SGM. Many of you have seen my car and now im rolling the LC818's Satin black right now. I know a lot will prob say ISS bc they are forged but please just give me your thoughts based soley on what you think will look the best. The price is a bit more but please disreguard that.

1. Vossen CV1 19" in Gunmetal, they drop in July. I like that they are concave and are releasing in a gunmeatal color...

2. ISS Forged Rx-10 19" These wheels are just plain pretty. I am just wondering if they would look good with the flow of my car. And if you like these would you go with?

A. Dark Gunmetal Face with polished or brushed lip?
B. Matte Black Face with polished or brushed lip?

the iss forged are nice too, but not too big on the rivets.

damn those gunmetal cv1's are pretty...

rx-10 would look good with an aggressive kit like wald or jp vizage.

the gunmetal cv1's would look good with your vertex and gfx rear+diffuser

Both look on point, but I wonder what's the price difference, because these wheels are on different level $$, if I were you I would get the ISS.

If they were out right now, that would make it easier, or if you can get me a hell of a deal (hint hint) someone else is.... that would make it easier too...
