Well if you are willing to dish out the $3k+ on the iForged wheels, then by all means Aero is the hands down winner. You could also consider CCW Sp500s, they are a bit cheaper I believe and very similar to the aeros.

I love 505a's, sp500's, Aero's, and Classic's, but my god $3k on wheels? That's half of a Procharger!!

Honestly, just my opinion, you can't beat the way tt2's look on a ws6. iforged aeros look really good too imo but tt2's still take the win "for me". I also like fiske fm10's. I accidentally voted for the aeros on your poll, my dumbass didn't see the tt2's

I have 19" iForged Evolution, 11" rear and 9.5" front. The centers are chrome and the lip is polished. I like the look of the 10 spoke, although it is similar to a Z06, I don't have any pictures of the car after upgrading the to the Baer Eradispeed and powder coating the calipers.
