If I had to choose. But both have spokes that seem too thin for a big car like the TL

Hey KOP....glad to see you chimed in here...lol. Since I am keeping the OEM rims which I will probably put back on in late Autumn (thus the reason for getting 17 inch aftermarket rims so I don't need 2 complete sets of tires)....I wanted a more open look. I do think the spokes are thin also so I am thinking the 6 spoke instead of the 5 spoke might be the way to go. I'm thinking the 5 spoke would be too open a design. I wasn't sure about the bolts showing either though...although since the aren't around the entire rim they are not that bad. I've seen pics of these rims on other cars and the bolts really don't stand out as much as you might think. Sound reasonable ? lol

The #1 wheel Enkei RS6 I had on my civic a couple of years ago. And that's the kind of the car that wheel looks great on. Not the TL. Same goes for #2.

I have to differ with your opinion on that....I had the wheel put up to the car and to my eye it looked pretty good. Of course I won't know until they are all on car then I might think they look hideous....lol.
