Default RH c4's or J8's?

Well, i was set on volk sf challenges but i can't seem to find them in the size i want (19x9.5 19x10.5) and i don't feel like waiting.
So im between the C4's and the J8's. I am starting to really like the j8's even though i never thought i would. I have a superblack z. Could anyone post some pics of c4's or j8's? Thanks.

As nice as those RH are....in Hawaii, people that I know who had the C4 got them dented from potholes. Granted, I am sure that the roads over there are a lot smoother than here, but still, my Volks are holding out okay. Just a heads up. Style is nice to have granted...but after paying the cash...I am sure that you want something that will be sturdy enough as well, esspecially for rims. Assuming that you are upsizing, Larger rims=less tire=greater chances for rim damage.

Not insulting those that have them mind you. Just that in order to drive on the roads in Hawaii...you need a truck. Yes...they suck that bad. Anyways, just saying that for whatever reason, even though everyone else might be fine with them in the mainland, 2 guys here dented their rims from the potholes...and repairing them was a pain in the butt.

Well,

I have friends that have dented Volks, Champion Motorsport, Iforged and HREs ... SoCal is not friendly either. It takes a cautious driver and a bit of attention to keep these in order.

I don't doubt the quality of your Volks, but I would put my forged barrel (the center is cast) right on par with Volk in strength.
