Default Help me choose my wheels!!!

I am looking at new wheels to put on my 2009 Road King Classic.
What is the best wheel to choose?
XTREME MACHINE "Stilleto" wheels or
PERFORMANCE MACHINE "Diesel"

I REALLY like the look of the "Stilleto" wheels but I don't know anything about the company, but I know that Performance Machine has top quality wheels!!!

i am going with chrome 9-spoke HD rims: subtle "bling" plus easy to clean. My bike already had this in front so I am replacing the stock laced rear. sample pic below:

+1 on that. On a classic you gotta stay with a classic look.

Out of the two you have chosen I would go with Performance Machine I work at a Harley Dealer and sell plenty of their wheels and have had no issues with their wheels at all especially with their chrome. I have a set of PM wheels for my wife's Sporty that I need to get put on for her. I personally have Coastal Moto wheels on my Fatboy and love them chrome is nice and so is the design.
