Poll: What wheels should I get now??

Ok, I am thinking of getting new wheels to go with the Techart front and maybe sideskirts...
I am confused as to whether I should keep my 542s or get a new set of HREs (8 series)...I am thinking of 841R or 840R...Please make suggestions and I also put other in the poll but I think I am sort of only considering HREs as I believe they are the best wheels money can buy and lip just looks so hot!!

Champion RG19 Monolites like these!

If you want HREs, definately get the new 8 series. I'm not a big fan of "wheel bolts" anymore!

The Champions are nice, and I considered them, but too many god damn people have them down here....Champion puts those on every car they sell....its rare to see a car with stock rims compared to a car with these ...
I agree the 1pc is a lot nicer then the 3pc ones...

I am not into multi-spoke wheels like cargraphic, BBS, CHampion...I also really like the curved spokes on the 542Rs as straight spokes look good on any car whereas curved ones only look good on a select few cars the 996 being one of them...
Still need your votes guys...
I think HRE makes the best wheels money can buy period

Need more lip and in chrome (high polish is a PITA!!) and I figure getting another set of 542Rs would be plain stupid...

Mansour,

My car is in getting the type 2 TA front this week and it already has the skirts and 542R's... So if you want I will send you some pictures later this week so you can see how your car would look with the front and skirts with 542R's. I know your looking at the TA II GT but it will give you an idea.. It is also Silver....

I bought them from Brandywine in Philly. Call Justin at 610-886-1000. Maybe he'll take your wheels in trade.

HREs are great wheels, but if you're looking at 840s or 841s, they are also multispoke wheels.
