Cool American Racing Bajas or American Eagle 143's?

I can't decide. I could go with either one but I just want to hear some second opinions. Tell me what you think.

The AE's - http://americaneaglewheel.com/143.htm

The AR's - http://americanracing.com/ar2000/whe...asp?wheelid=11

Just my personal opinion, but I like the 143's. That's what I put on my truck and I think they look great. In my opinion, everyone has the AR Baja type rims because they usually are the cheapest, decent looking aluminum wheel you can buy. American Eagle 589's, the new Pro-Comp extreme alloy's, and Mickey T Classic 2's are all the same as the American racing wheel. The 143's look just like the Weld Typhoon's with the exception of the AE's being cast instead of forged, so us "regular" people can afford them. I also like the American Eagle center caps that come with the 143's. Just my 2 cents.

Sorry, offroad guy, I don't have any digital pics of it yet. There are guys on here with the same wheels that do have pics posted. I am going to try to get a digi cam and take some of mine for everyone to check out. Take Care.
