Default Poll: TE37's or SF-Challenges

Which would you put on a Silverstone Z? --- BTW I have the TE's in Gunmetal right now and am considering getting the SF-Challenges.

sf challenges look more krazy so to speak.. the TE's look more professional and clean looking..

i say get the challenges they look a lot cooler.. the best part i like about it is those little square pieces on the edge of the lip.. makes it look pimp

I had TE37's but prefer the look of a fat polished lip. The beauty of the TE37's is in their function - strong, light, forged wheel with a clean, classic look.

I really like the SF Challenges but IMO its a wheel that looks much better with big brakes because of all the open space between the spokes. Its also quite a bit heavier if that sort of thing matters to you.

im more into the performance aspect of things so my vote goes to TE....if you want a bit more bling than the TE, why not consider the LE's?

Keep the TE's, they are cleaner than the Challenges. If you want, take them to a wheel shop and make them LE's for an even better look.....

It depends what you're going for. If you are buying the wheels for looks, hands down SF-Challenge. These wheels are ten times better looking in person. If you are buying them for performance, then TE37.

I like both wheels and was contemplating between these 2 and the Work Meister S2R. Get the SF challenges, that way there won't too many people w/ the TEs cause I just got mine.

TE 37s are better performance wise, and look better than challenges. The spokes on the challenges are too puny and tiny, doesn't intimidate anything at all.... those TE37s would look better with +22 offsets though, the non-concave look doesn't work well with TE37s doesn't make it aggressive looking enough.
