Default Strasse Forged S8 0r sm8

I'm having a tough time deciding on which wheels to get. I leaning towards the s8 in a brushed finish, but at the same time sm8 looking pretty damn good.

Please help me decide. Also, what finish would look the best on a SFP.

Damn, my decision just got harder. lol

OMG, R10's in step lip looks amazing. Is that a brushed center?

Sffd, is your lip polished or chrome?

The R10 pic I posted is a brushed finish and step lip. I have chrome lips. Much easier to clean and ALWAYS stay shiny. Just don't curb them!
