ok, so im looking at rims, i have been for a while now and i've looked at many different rims and i cant make a decision.
I've looked at Breyton Magics, Magic Racings, Visions, BBS CH, Hartge Classics, and i think thats it. I dont know what to get. I'm looking to spend around $2500 with tires. 18 preferably, maybe 19, about 8.5" wide i just cant make up my mind... any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Rob

My vote is for either the Breyton Magics or Magic Racings. The regular Magics have more of a deep dish than the Racings, but the Racings are multi-piece, with a polished lip. If I could go back and do it again, I would have paid more for the Racings (even though I like the deeper dish). Definitely go with 19's! Since you can purchase regular Magics at almost half the price of Racings, I'd get the regular Magics (I think last time I checked, they were under $400 now). Good luck deciding!

I agree with Fu also I wonder why

Magics and the CH's are really nice!

I am down for rims as well, However I had the same idea with Magics Racing 19". However then I saw CruizinKo's car and started falling in love with HRE 448R in Black (those are 5 large with tires), However for the price I would have to say go Magics Racing.

BBS CH's get my vote

I wanna stick with the 18's bc around NY there are numerous potholes, and i dont wanna hav dents in my nice rims. and i think its gonna be between the magics and magic racings... i love the bbs ch, but i think they look too stock, unless u kno BMW's/cars reasonably well, no1 will look at the rims and think "hes lookin to hook tht shyt up"... u kno? i dunno if the Magic racings are worth the extra almost $700. For that price i could do a lot of other stuff. i wasnt sure whether fuschnicken said i should get the magic, or racings "If I could go back and do it again, I would have paid more for the Racings...I'd get the regular Magics" if you could help clarify it would be appreciated, im not trying to be rude, im just confused... i feel like a woman with her period, and im getting scared of myself already, lol

thanx lol-

I'm not sure of this, but Breytons have been said by others to be *soft* and that cant be good if you're driving a lot through manhattan or the NYC tri-state.

I'd say...go BBS CH or LMs.

Other choices: MVRs....Dronells.....

If you're not looking to spend alot, I'd go with the regular Magics. I was just saying, in my case, I wish I would've gone with the Magic Racings, because a year ago, there wasn't a big price difference between the regular Magics and the Racings. Today, it's quite a bit different (you said $700?). As for the rumor that Bretyon's are 'soft', I've had mine for over a year now, and living in the city and commuting 50-60 miles everyday, I haven't had any problems yet (knock on wood).
