Default Opinions please? (TE37SL vs G25)

I was set on the TE37SLs but I'm still holding back for 2 main reasons. 1. I'm not a fan of dark coloured wheels, I don't know how dark they look in person but I prefer the mercury silver colour. 2. I'm starting to feel like TE37s are a little played out. Volks aren't cheap so I figured I want to make the best purchase possible, one I would not regret. The G25s have a modern design, but lack that "classic" look. On my white car, I'd use red calipers for the TE37SLs or burnt orange calipers on the G25s. (They will go on an Amuse'd 370z)

Thoughts?













This new finish especially

I would go with the G25s but I may be biased. :P

I'm a fan of the G25's also. The TE's kinda don't shine in my eyes the way they use to

Hmm, tough one. I think the 370 benefits from a wider spoke design, but I agree, the TE37's are a little tired. Seen them on so many cars for too many years.

But if I were to get new wheels for a 370, I would get these:

But pricey and only in 20".

Those look amazing! Not a fan that they only come in 20's either.

Damn, I wish I created a poll for this.

The TEs have a classic, timeless design that I think I were to ever sell them I would have no problem doing so. But the G25s...

I think it depends on the look you are going for. The Volks are my preference, but I hate the single colored spoke like that black/red car.
