Which do you like better, these are without a doubt my 2 favorite wheels on the market.
505As


or

SP500s




So while I wait for BFG to release the 315/30/18 KDW2, I might as well think of which wheel I want
BTW I have an NBM Trans Am

Me neither, they are both incredibly sexy in their own way.

The SP500s are subtle, sleak and smooth with incredible curves, the 505As are sharp, sexy and down right nasty!

I'l probably leaning toward the 505As as they were my 1st love and they grab a little more attention I think...tough choice

500s on an F-body. Although I favor the 505's for a GTO.
