Another wheel choice
It doesn't seem like anyone likes the OZ Chronos I chose. So what about these? They weigh about the same as the stockers so there is no real performance gain. They are 18x8 Elbrus I04.
My car is black. What do you think? Is it
or 
?

Well. This is from tire rack. I don't know if that brand makes other sizes which are sold elsewhere.
I would be 100% all over these if they weighed 20lbs. But they weigh 25lbs. From what I hear that is what stock wheels weigh.
But they do look good and cost only $140 a wheel.
So I have 3, 1 
, and no or

I'll tell you what I'm looking for and maybe you guys can help me out. First of all, I have a 6spd so there aren't alot of choices. I want
1) A wheel that is 20lbs or less.
2) 18" (I don't want to go bigger than that. Lots of potholes here)
3)Less than $300 per wheel.
And if it helps my car is black so you can be guided to what looks good.

I don't think I could afford volks even if they are used.
I think the reason these appeal to me is because even though they are 18's the inner lip is black so it kinda makes the wheel look bigger.
I think I would probably agree with that. Kinda like the cobalt SS wheels. Kinda flat and plain. But they do look ok.

Honestly, it doesn't help the car. Kind of makes it look more stock.

positives-sporty yet stock looking
-appear larger than they really are
-$140 each wheel
-Look easier to clean than stack wheels
negative-weigh 25lbs, no performance gain over stock
-still kinda looks like a stock wheel
