I looked and looked for a set of wheels and had to decide between two different ones. Either the TSW chrome vortex or these Enkei GP5 with the special brilliant coating (SBC).
I was wanting chrome but I took a chance on these because they were over 400 dollars cheaper then the TSW rims.
The coating is almost mirror like. I was very impressed. It is a deaper clearer reflection then most chrome. They come with a one year warrenty on the finish. From the research I did I think they are lighter then the vortex wheels also. So I feel like I took a chance and it payed off.

I personally think they give it a classy look especially on black. But I am a little bias because they remind me off the 2003 cobra wheels for the mustangs and i have always liked how they looked, especially the chome ones on black.

They look good. Did you get the same width front/rear or staggered? It would be nice if they offered 18x9.5 instead of 18x9.
