Which wheels to get for a pearl white 6speed?

i'm going through the picture gallery and looking at every color trying to decide which wheels will fit (give it that complete look). I'm pretty sure 19.8 is what i want. I'm thinking about going the safe and neutral route with a 5 star rim, but i like alot of the split 8 stars with a lip. here is a set i found at www.victoriatire.com that might look good.. i'm going to give a few choices here and can you guys tell me what you think.. btw does the 6 speed manual have the same 5x114.3 pattern as the 5at? car is pearl white also.

My vote is for #1. #2 looks like it belongs on an SUV or truck.

I woould definately recommend www.racing lab.com. I bought my 5Zigen Sports Engine SC3000 wheels from them. order to delivery took 1 week. very pleasant to deal with over the phone.

You should have a look at Jesstzn's TL...
He's got a nice white whip with a decent set of wheels.

But I'm thinking, if you have a 6 speed, then you probably also have Brembo brakes... in which case none of your selected wheels will fit.

You're limited to about 10 wheels that will actually fit, and half of them are made by Ron Jon.

Go with the RonJons or check the Black Market, maybe you could find something there.

If you need a vote for a rim style, I'd go with #2. Nice lip.........

if you need wheels that will clear the BBK on WDP check out www.racinglab.com. I purchased my 5Zigen Sports Engine SC3000 from them. They clear the BBK. It's a tight fit, but they do clear with no rubbing at all.
