Default RIMS! which one!?

Need some advice for rims.

I'm in Germany right now (I live here actually) and those are the rims they have here.

Can't use any Volks etc. cuz they're not street-legal here..stupid TÜV ..

1, 2 or 3 ?

+2 on the OZ.

Although the 2nd wheel looks quite nice as well. Reminds me of the 5Zigen HYPER 5ZR.

cuz in Germany every shitty thing thats installed on your car needs to go through TÜV <-- and has to be tested and thats pretty expensive between *1000-2000 Euro*

I prefer the 5-spoke personally, though my wheels are a sort of combination between both of those above (though a split 5-spoke, rather than a split 6-spoke).

If you can't use Volks then I guess you'll have to settle for OZ's poor you. J/P

OZ For sure!

I vote for the 5 spoker. Wheels with umpteen million spokes look so tacky. But thats just my opinion.

I agree
Unless you're driving a '70s olds, buick, or caddy, have 24K gold Daytons and your name is Snoop. But.....

The OZ Superlagra 3piece is light and strong, looks great on the Z.

Now these are tacky

All of the rims on those wheels are nice, but if you're talking about the complete wheel...then I'd vote for either of the 5-spokers.

So you mean the German Govt. won't let Volks get inside the country? Or you can buy them but illegal?

Be a REBEL and get the VOLKS! I'm sure the cops can't tell the difference. hehe
