If that second pict is the same person i'm thinking of, those rims are NOT bronze...they're graphite.

Do you know who's hatch that is, or did you take it from some other post? Is it boosted (400+ hp?)

I'd go bronze, i'm kinda partial to them though because i have some RH CP-8's on my ride
peace

i thought in the second picture, those were gunmetal not bronze. but graphite is very close to gunmetal i guess. those pictures are just examples too.

Bronze is nice, but I'm partial to a nice, dark gunmetal. I think the Bronze is a fad, albeit a good one.

Either wheel will work, it all depends on the color of the car and appearance of the wheel.

I hope everyone isn't comparing those pictures because both of those wheels are bronze. The light was pictured badly in the second picture posted. So picture to picture this is bronze versus bronze. Here is a close up picture in better lighting:



Here is the example for gunmetal






The above wheels are for sale, details can be viewed here :
