Thank you all for your input.

This was not an easy decision for me to make. I like them both. The yellow pin stripe does look really awesome in person. These wheels give the car a very unique look. Which was exactly what I was after.

Since I just like the blacked out look more than the unique yellow pin stripe I have decided to keep the Vorsteiner wheels.

My wheel guy is helping me sell the five spoke Roderick RW-5 wheels with the yellow lip. They took about a month to get in gloss black and with the pin stripe. The usually only come in flat black.

So the Roderick RW-5 wheels are for sale in the for sale section with lots of pictures.

Gotta admit the all blacked out idea is played and boring I think you could've set your car off with the sporty five spoke and actually highlighted the wheel a little bit more trust me I have the Roderick's and as u can see they set my car off perfectly it's all how you accent em I bet you when u see a black TT with those RW-5's done rt in yellow you will be like damn I had those?! The whole idea of custom wheels is just that to be custom!

I'd like the 2nd set better without the yellow lip
