In a way, I am trying to get some rims that are different but tasteful. The Milles are getting too common.

the Tenzo-R Mean 6 wheels are one of the best looking around IMHO

The reason I am creating this thread is that I am trying to come up with different wheel choices when I decide to get them. So far, my list includes...

OZ Racing Antares (Chrome)
Azev Type PS

As I stated before, I am looking for rims that are different, but tasteful with a touch of aggressiveness to them. I am going for an 18" rim but the tires will be 245/40/18.

I don't like the Azevs. Do some searching and pick something ya like. It really don't matter what we think.

While that may be true, it does bring attention to a rim that otherwise would have been overlooked. Personally, the PS doesn't look too bad at all. It looks even better in chrome.

Don't get me wrong, I am still looking at the OZs but just gathering alternatives since wheel styles are quite cyclical.

I have been talking with the folks at CEC (www.cecwheels.com) to get more info on these rims.

Well, to make a long story short, I talked with CEC and they said the price of the rim is $1299/rim (Chrome PS in 18"). No thanks, I'll stick with the OZ Racing Antares.
