You should add a cost and style,I have seen some expensive wheels for the Gen5 that I would not put on a broke down pickup truck.

Personally , I am going for a themed set-up, so I looked for a set that would folow the route I am taking....... Stay tuned for posts from D2Forged on the Photoshoot we did sunday, UN-frickin' believable.

Those guys at D2 are Phenominal, I have had nothing but, Professionalism, outward thinking and openmindedness throughout my relationship with them. The guys at D2Autosport have a great line-up of wheels, and I look forward to benefits of being a D2Life.com member and would promote them to anyone , anywhere........ I am flattered by the compliment and as soon as the Photos are released , all I can say is "It's ON"

I wish I could say style first. But first I look at the price and my budget.

I voted cost. I don't care what it looks like or how light it is, if it's way to expensive I wont buy it. I do care about weight and style, but I am only willing to pay a little more for it compared to other wheels. Obviously I wouldn't buy wheels I did not like, but I think you get the point. That's me, wheels are a must, not not worth going bankrupt over.

Something that does not look like every other wheel out there, sadly there is nothing different.
