Best looking 5 spoke design?

Hey, whats going on guys? I was looking around and I have always found the 5 spoke wheels very nice. I'm looking for something Classy, Clean, and of course Sporty. I came across the Vossen 084. Vossen 085 and Ginaelle Venezia ( Are these a good brand). Also the finish, debating with black accent with silver lip, or just all silver. The Ginaelle comes in chrome. So all your feedback is greatly appreciated. I spent so much time trying to look for pictures for G37 in platinum graphite with aftermarket wheels on.. its hard. But I'll keep searching.

Who makes HR5, i see a new set of 19 wheels for sale MMR HR5 for $1280. Are this cheap wheels/heavy/one piece? Or nice wheels with bad quality craftmanship?

Sorry Stoof180. While working today, Im going to look at what exactly those type of wheels means, I definately know 1 piece ( melted into a wheel shape), 2/3 (pieces added to make the wheel( does this make it better, or whats with that). Concaved is too much for me. reverse lips dont know what that is. Stepped lips, i assume is with deep lip. If you look at the vossen 084/085. And the wheel you sent me. That's more my style. This is my daily car. I'm going to that Vendor spot in Staten Island probably this weekend where they sell all the good stuff nearby me. Budget wise $2k, hoping to get $2500 with tires. I saw some packages total with tires $ 1700. I guess you get what you pay for. I'm trying to get 19" so I can have the same rubber as the original 19" tires so I dont have to feel all the bumps, pebbles etc. I'l looking for clean/classy/sporty look. I'm not taking the car to the showroom, but would like to get comments on the wheels at the red light. Funny thing I get those with the original wheels lol. I got PG. So all black is not me. I need maybe a hint of the machined black with silver lip, or just go all silver. Thanks for your feedback. Ever need a Diagnostic Imaging Procedure, let me know lol. We got MRI/CT/XRAY/PETCT/FLUORO/ULTRASOUND/ECHO.. lol j'k....

ok ill help you out and explain what those terms mean.

1pc is not melted, its a wheel cut from one solid piece of metal.

2pc/3pc is a multi-piece wheel, usually forged face. this means the lip can be seperated from the face of the wheel. Better quality, easier to fix bends, more money.

Reverse lips means a smooth lip like the vossens or works or volks that have been posted.

Stepped lips is when the lip has a little step in it. Like this http://home.comcast.net/~tomiboy120/shell2.jpg

In your price range forget about a 2 or 3 pc, you wont find it.

What vendor place in SI? Go to wheel concepts/tire empire on hylan blvd and ask for demo, tell him stoof sent you.

D2 MotorSport in LONG island is one choice. I didnt know that there is a hot spot in Staten Island? Is that the one you mention," Wheel Concepts/tire empire". Thanks a lot dude. I dont know too many spots here in Jersey that is all about Import parts for G37 etc. I noticed a lot of these spots happen to be in Nevada, California, Florida.
