Default Looking for a Mesh wheel design

I loved my Racing Hart C2s on the Tib and I'm looking for something similar for the Genesis Coupe.


Considering 19" STAGGERED wheels (8.5 and 9.5), silver with a polished lip. The problem with the ones I've listed below is that the lip isn't as deep as I would like.

I got nothing for you on the wheels, but that was one sweet looking tib, majik.

I know... I miss it. I'm excited to have a good opportunity to start from a clean slate and do things right. I want it to look 100x better than the Tib ever did.

I had 3 guys (2 men and a teenager) drooling over my car when I came out to the parking lot after dinner. It's completely stock and still turning heads - I love it.

Now find me some wheels to make it 10x sexier!

I like the design, but I'm not liking the way they look on cars. Too many spokes I think, too wirey

I might like it if I saw it in person. I have a hard time picturing rims, and even the C2s only looked good after I saw em in person

I wrote a response last night, but i guess it didn't actually submit.

I don't think the mesh wheels go well with the Genesis. I would not go with any of those. Those wheels all look light weight. The Genesis is supposed to be a "tough" car. A 5 spoke wheel would be the way to go with the genesis. A 5 spoke wheel is much easier to keep clean because they have less surfaces to clean as well.

However, if I had to choose, I'd say go with one of the Racing Heart wheels.

majik,

what i meant by "like" is cause i didn't know if you were a fan of konig wheels on facebook.

I know what you mean with your tastes, i took a chance on mine .
