Ravi, I'd keep the Winnings.......If you keep the JP's, at a minimum I think you'll need to black out your headlights, front reflector and maybe even paint your door handles like Cat did.

Yeah guys most likely keeping the Volks, despite the fact that the JP's are rarer or what not. That was pretty much the only reason I bought them. Stylistically I thought I could make it work, but I'm not ready to paint the silver accent pieces. I'm more of a fan of the understated look.

Further I wanted to mod my "Z" kind of euro-inspired, so the Winnings suit this better IMHO.

Thanks to everyone, I really appreciate the support.

Alone or on paper, I'd take the Scara wheels over the Winnings.

On your Z, the Winnings really compliment the whole car. They look bigger and just seem like they fit the DB Z, making it alot cleaner.

It's a tough call, but don't get too caught up on "Matching everything". It's so five years ago. Contrast, and diff. colors FTW.

I love the scaras, I'd gladly trade you my silver 19" Racing Hart RS721's, rare wheels, not JP rare, but very hard to find.

Like I said, tough call. Your dilemma is one of good taste so I'll illustrate it this way:

Would you rather someone say "Sweet wheels! Who makes them?" everytime they see your car?

Or look at it as a whole and not be able to point out just one thing that makes the whole Z so seamlessly stunning.

Although I think Black w/ a polished lip is a played out look. I would have to agree that you can get away with it if you are rocking JP's..... keep em. They are more rare and more unique.

Zeph, thanks for such kind words. From someone with such a clean ride (as I've said before) that means a lot to me.

Anyway, at least the poll results are CONCLUSIVE LOL!

have i responded to this thread yet? I dont think so haha.. so here goes

The JPs are definitely unique.. but you shouldn't keep a wheel just because they are unique.. it should be if you like them or not. IMO the JPs are agressive looking and the winnings are more subtle. It really depends on what kind of style you're going for.

The winnings are nice.. but they don't really jump out at me when I see it. Overall i would say the car looks "clean" with the winnings.. whereas with the JPs i would be more impressed I think. But in any case, a bbk would make both setups look even better!
