I am trying to decide:

Kinesis K59 - Black center/polished lip
Kinesis K59 - All polished
HRE 545R - full polish

Car is SB Track

Sizes will be the same as what I have: 19x9 with 255/35 in front and 19x10.5 with 295/35 in rear.

What do you guys think ?

i think the 545r will look great on your car, and even better, if you're willing to get the brushed rather than high polish.

I have to agree with the above....I hopefully am getting SF Winnings in gunmetal for my black track. Mean is the way to go.

Ultimateone - your response is hard to decipher ... so you AGREE with the black Kinesis ?

I would go for the Kinesis in black. The Iforged aeros are practically an exact replica of the HRE 545rs. For all the $$ you are spending, you want to see a difference!

Black wheels look like you just lost your hubcaps.

I also have to ask, why buy new wheels that look similar but not as good as the ones you already have?

To me, the HRE and iForged look the same minus a few minute details. I test fitted Doug's Kinesis on mine, they are 18s. I want 19s.

The HREs look a tad better to me because of the recessed bolt/rivets.

Here is a pic of Dougs Kinesis on my car.

I'm partial to HRE, so how 'bout 545R center painted black or if you want to see more spoke filling up the space a 546R. When you get tired of that you can send them back to HRE and get 'em polished or brush finished or??? To me the width of the kinesis spokes are too wide for the Z.

try Kinesis K29s On your car. In 19 inch I cant think of a better more intimidating looking wheel.

If I had the money to spend 1000 per wheel, these would be mine

Another for a better idea.

Jeez these wheels practically give me a woody!

Imagine these w/ a lip.

I'd go with the HRE 545's...the spokes are a tad thinner than the kinesis, which leans out the look a bit. The HRE's in black with silver rivets and a polished lip...people will do this when you drive by... The black on black with polished lip looks mean, mean, mean...
