Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

I want to get a five spoke design and I think I have narrowed it down to two wheels:

Raceline Burst 5 or Coys C57 The Coys are half the price. Opinions?

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

I like the coys...but I'm easily swayed by price!

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

If you can afford the racelines, I'd go with them...but settling for the Coys is not a bad alternative.

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

That picture of the coys isn't very flattering...I've seen them in person and they look better than that....although they won't shine as much as the racelines (unless you get chrome )

I'm cheap also and would go with the coys because 95% of people at shows would think the racelines were the coys anyways

And I have better things to do than polish wheels so I'd do the coys in chrome...

here's some in chrome...

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

Since they're very similar, I'd get the Coys only because of price. If I had the dough, I'd get the Racelines, but in a different style than what you can get similiar at 1/2 the price.

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

Racelines (but I'm bias )

If the coys are anything like my Boss wheels, the racelines will be WAY lighter and great finish. However, they have a very thick mounting flange. On the front it left two threads to put a lug nut on, so I had to put in longer wheel studs.

These are "speedsters" (20x8.5 and 20x10)

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

Have you looked at the Eagle 225's. Similar wheel and priced like the Coys.

That's what I was thinking...what backspacing did you order? Any plans to bag the truck? How long did it take to get your racelines, they told me 12 weeks then shipping time

Re: Opinion Welcome...Raceline or Coys

Unfortunately, Racelines always take a while to get.... longer than most custom billet wheels. They are nice wheels though, and the pricing is good.
