    I like the 355/512TR wheels. Murcie Roadster wheels. Enzo wheels and those 997 wheels look good too. :)

    The Turbo 997 is pure sexyness!

    Edit: As a company wide OEM rim winner, MOST of the (not all) BMW OEM rims are very good designs!

    I loved the Cromas, so much that I bought a set for my 1974 Yellow Capri, with Pirelli CN36s. That was hot.

    Those Element rims do look pretty cool. I havent seen those before. Also the Fuchs(sp) that Porsches used to have always looked good.

    Oh yeah, I liked those wheels too, so I bought an Espada. It didn't have the knock offs though, they were too "dangerous" for the US.

    I thought that Pontiac really hit the nail on the head with these new rims for the upcomming G8. Then I heard that they were one detail that wasn't going to make it from concept to showroom. Typical...they will probably put on som crappy looking rims that do nothing for the car. Come on Pontiac, at least offer it as a option.

    New Audi RS4 wheels are my favorites.

    I think the 3-piece deep-dish chrome lip wheel look is played out, the new style is 1-piece no lip with the spokes curving in a lot to make up the deep offset... the Murcielago roadster and the new LP640 wheels (Hermera?) do this well, and the Enzo, Carrera GT, and BMW M3 CSL and M5 wheels to a slightly lesser degree.
