Default 17" chromies or 18" L-Tuned Salina's

Just like it says. What would you rather roll on? 17's for the chrome or the 18's cause they are L-Tuned and bigger is better.

No I haven't. Someone posted a site that has them refurnished but no centercaps. I haven't been looking too hard though, i've just been too busy lately.

Far as I know, there are two different L-Tuned wheels. The older one is a 9-dual-spoke OZ Superleggera (or is that the Salina?), real nice. The newer one is a crappy looking multi spoke thing that I saw someone selling yesterday for about $79 per wheel. They're all over ebay too. So of the two, if its the former one you're talking about, I'd go with that. But if it's that newer L-Tuned thing, the chromes are nicer. (I have the 17" chromes, by the way.)

Neo, thanks for clearing that up. Yeah, the Salina is great, I'd take that over chrome 17"s. The Superturismo looks like an old hubcap to me.
