Thoughts on wheels (HELP)

Ok so I was looking to get black rims to go on my NBP. My plan is to do a blacked/murdered out look with diff red accents, considering the interior lighting of my Type-S is already red. So far I have found two different rims that I liked but not sure what to go with. Both rims have more of an open look and I like that as I am planning on painting my Brembos red and would like them to stand out on the blacked out TL.

First rim I saw was the Motegi MR116. I liked it bt one of my friends, who is also a car guy, said not to get that brand. Apparently he had them before and was not impressed.



After he told me about that I kept looking around and I found a set of Enkei's that have a similar color pattern. They are Enkei Klamps.



Thoughts??

Black and Red are total sexy slick.
Stay that color powder coated.
I like them Enkeis.

the stock type s wheels that i have are a bit curb rashed. what i would do is get a more pristine set and powdercoat those and leave my current wheels as winter wheels.

i was thinking of teh enkei set as well since they are more of a gloss instead of a matte it seems

Converse, on a NBP, I love the wheels with the red trim. And yes, the RonJon's will take the TPMS.
