Racinghart CX multi or Volk Sf-challenge?

I was considering between CX multi and volk Sf-challenge.
From endless research, I was able to just get the price on them.
about $2400 for CX and $2230 for SF.
But they didn't wanna tell me how much each weighed...
Can someone tell me which one I should go for and how much they weigh??

And um.. I think this question might sound dumb. But I have a titanium gray and I'm definitely going to install a carbon fiber hood later. So would it be a better idea to go with black or graphite to match the carbon fiber hood and my black tint
or match the car color and stay with gunmetal??
I need your opinion guys~~ Thanx much

I'm on campus now and these stinking computers don't let me save the pics.
I'll post the pics of both wheels for you to compare later.
Thanks again~

SSR Mesh. :D

J/K. I'd go with the SF-Challenge. I'm sure they look gorgeous in gold.

Take a look at the RACING HART CX pic on the Mazdaspeed RX8 on the racing hart website gallery. It looks amazing. I love both wheels but would say that RACING HART CX has yet to be done besides the one car!

Thanks mike, I think you're car is the trendsetter for myself, w/ your addons and stuff :D

I would post more pics but I've been putting money into the car and not a camera ... I usually go to meets to get photos taken of my car.

my 8's titanium, but i'm definitely going to put a CF hood, so the colors will match if i get darker rims.

For sure this saturday the Bay Area should meet up, I think (every third saturday of each month?). When I do, I'll pauper around for some photo shots. I should update them anynow since I had the car lowered a bit.

As for graphite (or as I call it black :D ) I was going to get the gold CX rims, just to be different but someone told me that its always safer to go w/ silver

but if I had the RX8 in black, I'd probably would've gotten graphite 100%.

I forgot who posted these but, these are Volk SF Racing rims, the owner said he had to have them done in black, special order. I love and want them bad.
