Default Hamann PG's vs BMW Motorsport DSI's

OK - I have a set of DSI's on my car right now that I like very much, but I can trade them straight up for a set of used 3 piece 18x8.5 Hamann PG's. I know the PG's are WAY more expensive and SUPER rare, but I don't know how they will look on my car. I searched for TI's with Hamanns but I couldn't find one - if somebody has a picture please post it. I am going to trade for them no matter what - I just don't know if I'm keeping them. What would you do?

PG's


DSI's

I really like those Hamann wheels. I would certainly trade the guys straight up. If nothing else and you end up not liking the wheels sell them. You can come out ahead in the bargain anyway.

i have to go to class right now but if you can find those rims on another Car with a close to the same angle as one of the pictures of your car and post them up I can photoshop those rims onto your car. If not ill attempt with those pictures that you have up now. I personally like the rims you have now, they look very good on a ti but like I said give me at least till tonight and ill see what I can do so you have a better idea on how they would look on your car.

Trade for the Hammans, and trade them away. I dont like how theyre not very open. Whatre the other hammans, that are 5 flat spokes, PG2s? Those look clean. Either way, you will definitely come out ahead if you get the hammans. Maybe even get some DSIIs, which I think look better than the DSIs

Those look similar to those wheels, but they are AC Schnitzer Rennsport wheels
