I'd definitely get the TT wheels over those. The second one is the better of the two, though, imo.

i think for silver you can look to spend 400 to 600

polished/chrome from 700 to 1100

First set is not bad. It really depends on offset and stuff though

I'm not to fond of "chrome-y" wheels I like darker wheels

just my opinion. They have a nice lip on them, but they would be too shiny for me

The first set looks like old school hot rod wheels and the second set looks like the 2006 GS430 5 spoke but with a lip. Nice lookin wheels, either one would look great. I would love to see the first set on an SC.

I really don't like either, but if these were the only choice, I'd go with the second one.

Just get the TTs or save up for something nice like Volk, Work, or get some Gram Lights
