They grew on me.
I like the gunmetal CR wheels.
I'd take them if they're price under $1300 including tires.

I still prefer the 5-spoke AP1's over the 10-spoke AP2's, and I like them even better when powdercoated...



But as someone said above, it's all subjective, oner thing for sure, I would take the new 5-spoke CR wheels over those girtrlie looking 10-spoke designs any day.

yeha ap2 v1 the best lookers.

but on the bright side it appears 08's get black lug nuts ohhh the jealousy!
My 08 doesn't have black lugnuts neither does my brothers 08, must be a CR only thing.

As for the wheels initially I didn't like them, they have grown on me. If I do anything I will probably do a set of TR Motorsports F3, but I drive so little it hardly seems worth it.

When I got my '07, I wasn't that in love with the rims, but they sure have grown on me.

Even better than the 02-03 rims?

I like the AP2v3, and have grown to like the AP2v2, but the AP2v1 is still my favorite. I think I'll warm up to the v3s once I see then some more.

I'd really like to see v3s on an AP1 however, imo the v2 works better with the AP1 than the v2. Not sure why that is... but it just is.
