Stock Wheels or Techart 20"'s for my C4S

O.K. I need a few opinions on a wheel selection. Can buy these 20" Techart Formula III's in black or stay with my 19" lobster forks in silver. Which do you guys like better.

oh man, your car looks sick in booth of these wheels, i like the 20" Techart Formula III's more than the 19s. but as i said before even if you stay with your stock wheels, there won't be any car in your road looks like yours.
good choice of car

I picked neither . You did give me the choice option. Of the two the TA look better but I would pick HRE's .

Your car looks beautiful --like a driver's car . I feel you will get better performace out of light weight forged HRE wheel .

My personal choice is the Comp series (C20 or C21) but if monoblock it is then some P43's would look great on that car.

i agree with cayenne, if you want looks then go with techart, however they are heavier and will hold you down. Especially when you go hunting on the weekends like i do. LOL

I agree with Cayenne and Yrralis that if the Techarts are heavier you are better off with stock or a lighter aftermarket wheel for performance. I went with the HRE C20's and use my lobster claws for winter wheels. There are a number of great aftermarket wheels that reduce unsprung weight and look great.

Those are formula II's that are pictured not III's. I sold a set of Formula II's because they are so damn heavy and were a b***h to take off and put on the car.
