It gets old.....

For the money difference ($250-$400 a wheel) difference, the LM-R is a better bet.

And, nicer looking too, IMO....
As mentioned, the LM-R's are great but are only available in a width of 10" for the rear. Non cleared, polished wheels are not an issue as I am pretty meticulous when it comes to keeping my cars clean.
