i've had both on my car but different colors. i like the traditional 5 spoke look of the Challenges. i still think they look very clean. the main reason i switched out was because the Challenges were getting to be pretty common place and i wanted a wider setup. i love my Winnings. i think they really look great on a black car and i'm always getting compliments on them.

old gunmetal challenges (8.5, 9.5)


current gold winnings (9.5, 10.5)

I was a bit torn between these two as well.

The challenges seemed like they would be ALOT easier to keep clean. That was a big part of my decision.

I got my Volks from Evolution Autosports in Chantilly, VA. They are also forum vendor here and have a very good prices with excellent customer services. They will match or beat the anyother prices you find on the internet.

Other forum vendors I'd recommend could be Injected Performance, Revhigh, 350zonline. Check out vendor classified section.

Contact them and get a quote, and go with best prices and immediate availability.

get the sf winnings in black. black on black is a sweet combination, and black mesh looks best on a black car!

I have the Winnings in Merc Silver on my BS G35 Coupe - I went with less aggressive offsets than others, but I still have a 2.75" lip in the front and nearly 3.5" of lip in the rear - they definitely look sick in person, but are a pain in the a$$ to keep clean... I wouldn't have anything else though!

Did You Have To Cut Or Fold Your Fenders For The 285? Is Your Car Dropped?

I love em both but went with Challenges because I wanted to expose a beautiful set of BBK's when those go in. The Challenges are pretty common but they're such a simple design that they don't take anything away from the car. It's hot with a wide rear setup: 10.5 with a low twenties offset.

The geometry of the SF-winnings are alot like the BBS line so that design will be common, regardless. The nice thing about the Winnings is that you can get a narrower setup in the back: 9.5 and still have alot of lip because the spokes are pretty straight.

So how did I decide when I was on the wall on the looks of both?!?
In short here was what I thought:

SF Challenges:
Pros: Easy to clean, agile 5 spoke look, receptive to beautiful BBK kit.

Cons: The Challenge spokes protrude more so you have to get an aggressive setup to look aggressive. (as mentioned above)

SF Winnings:
Pros: The Winnings can get away with a mild setup and still look pretty aggressive. Classic mesh look.

Cons: Clings more brake dust with more spokes, Covers a little more of the BBK kit, Resembles your average BBS mesh wheel.

Conclusion: went with the Challenges because I wanted a wide setup for tires, hence eliminating the cons for the challenges.

Either way...you can't go wrong.
