Default Best Looking Wheels?

I am thinking about buying some new wheels, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions? I was thinking about buying some 20" Foose Lusso, but I don't know how everything will look. Also if anyone has any pics I would appreciate seeing your Crossfire. My Crossfire is 2004 Black Coupe, so if anyone has any suggestions as to which brand of wheels will look good on a Black Coupe, please post. Thanks again

Cool Re: Best Looking Wheels?

The Foose "Lusso" are very close to the "Speedster 5" just a little more subtle IMHO. I have the "Speedster 5" on my Roadster Limited.

Also, Should I get 20's all around or get 20's on back and 19's up front? Also what size tires will look the best with w/e rims you guys recommend?

I "love" the V12 badge on one of the black Crossfires with the foose 5-spokes (sarcasm) pictured in one of those links from above. Oh boy.

Haha, Yeah I know. I found that pic on the net. Just saw some pics of a Xfire with Asanti 114's and it looks hella nice. Anyone know any good places to get the best Asanti Wheel price?

Not much of a choice of styles but designed to work with the wheel sensors and Mercedes underpinnings.

Narrowed my decision to Either Asanti or Lexani brand. Should I make the wheels 20's all around or 19s in front 20s in back?

the only negative thing i can say about those rims are the fact that they are not a single piece... so if your roads are not perfect and you drive the car hard you best be aware that these rims can handle a lot less pressure than many of the cheaper worse looking ones...

ok, by far i'm sure mine are the best looking wheels. the giovanna sabinas are awesome, they are convertible, from the chrome look, to the removable black cap look. i don't know of any other rim that has these features imho.

Well I live in Tennessee, and TN from my experiences has some of the best roads in the country. I however use my XFire for everyday driving, do you guys think Asanti AF112's will hold up?
