5 Wheels to choose from

A:

B:
<--(comes in black too)
C:

D:

E:


The first three are new, D is used and comes with centercaps and good tires, same with E. I've got about $800 to spend, and the used ones are a bit cheaper then the new ones.

I'm having a really hard time choosing some wheels that would look good with primrose. Whatcha think?

I kinda like B, see if you can get it photoshopped on your car to see what it might look like.... not really feeling the black ones, there are some nice black ones out there....

leaning more towards B or C, A looks cool, but it's a biotch to clean :-)

Personally C get most of my vote. Ds look slightly beat up (might be the photo and glare).

But it's your car so whatever you choose is fine.

Well... I've been talking with my friend about the wheels and suspension. I'm seriously considering just paying more to do it right, I would be getting H&R race springs, Tokico Illuminas, and (used )16" Rota C8s w/ tires. In fact it would look almost like PimpCl23's car used to look like, except primrose and with clear corners. I can afford it, but this was supposed to stay stock and a just a driver >_<.


This indecision is killing me...

have they closed the Tires, Wheels, and Suspension forum lately, or do people just get so excited about posting rim choices that their boner blocks them from thinking logically?

BTW - they are all ugly since your asking for opinions.

I found a good deal on a set of four Illuminas on ebay, would they be ok for a 2" drop? I would think so, my old Z had em with ground control coilovers.
