I like the mesh more, but an HRE mesh or BBS. The 5star all chrome is to much. I really like the look of a polished lip with a different color center. I guess what really matters though is what you like.

I like the Mesh wheels as well. HRE wheels are very nice though too.

Mesh 8's on this car. The HRE 5 spokes still look great and maybe even better on a different car.

You should get some pics from the front end too to show off that techart front

depends on your taste though.

what does your parking-lot-pimpin meter tell you?

and damn e, another set of rims...damn...
Tucker, my parking-lot-pimpin meter as you put it tells me that if I want to roll with the T-man, I have to roll chrome

Thanks... I like them both... I think it's all about the look I'm going for. Mesh8's - clean and aggressive...HRE's-flashy and "pimpy"

Ed,

I like the mesh as well get the HRE's brushed at SAB's They are a little too blingy at the moment. I think they'd look awesome with brushed centers.

Another mesh vote--the mesh rims look great on your Turbo.

Mesh 8's all the way. Give the car a "classic" look. FWIW.
