the enkei rims cuz they don't have those lil accent screws on the spokes... but they is really similar anyway... what you should concern you even more is if they will fit with no problems when you put them on the wheel studs....

Wheels are going to stick out. you're going to rub with a drop. i suggest a +45 offset or greater.
