I don't think you can beat the Luganos or the Interlagos. I really like the twisted turbine blade look of these 2. The luganos just edge it over the interlagos for me, but not enough for me to have paid the extra for them, and i'd worry that the step up to 19" rubber would harm the ride. Not keen on the Chicagos at all - the spokes are too chunky.

I also believe these two kinds of wheels suite the car more than other. Lugano's also really amazind but if you look closer they are not twisted as tourbine like the interlagos. The blades on the luganos are twisted in pairs facing each other. Interlagos are the only tourbine look Volkswagen has. They look really awesome when the wheel is moving. They have the jet engine effect. Luganos dont
