IMO The statement above from the first post indicates other wise.

Yes. The rest of the post is correct. I messed the number in that sentence.
726 is around $1000
725 is around $750

The more I think about it the 725 reminds me of the escalade wheels That I really love.
22" GMC Chevrolet Escalade Factory Style Black Wheels 5409 Tires 285 45 22 Nexen | eBay

I think I am going to save the cash and buy the 725. I can buy the 4 wheels and one tire I need and still spend less money. If I don't like the accents I can still have them powder coated all black and be even with the 726s.

both look good if you are running a street tire i would go 726 but if you went with more aggressive tread i would go with the 725.

I am with you. But I just can't justify the extra cost. Plus I am starting to be more 50/50 between the two.

I fully understand what you guys are saying.
