Default the spoke design is very flat, and as it gets to the center, its a sharp transition unlike

the Sportec, it has smooth tapered look as it flows towards the middle, bolt pattern area.

i agree though, there's something about those i'm not sold on.

Default Same thing bothers me about the BBS RE's vs. the CH's...

but some of the pictures of the RE's seem to show a smooth taper.

Default Those "extreme" rims are weak get the reps or even the FLIKS

but i think the 18inch reps are your best call

I'd go Sportec even though they are relatively heavy.
