    Default Need opinion on Rims

    Okay, I'm going back to Hong Kong soon. Want to sucker my dad into buying me some rims. Here are my four choices, which ones do you like?:
    1) 18" Renntech 10-spokes $6500



    2) 18" Lorinser LM-5 $5000



    3) 18" OZ Superleggaras $3600


    4) 17" AMG's $3000

    Damn, can't get the links to show as images!!!

    Anyways, I wanted the AMG ones for so long and they are the cheapest. The Renntech ones are so nice but they are so expensive. I really like the Lorinsers a lot. And the OZ's, well they are cheap and in-stock.

    I like #1, but they would look a lot better on that car is it was lowered 2".

    I like option 4 the best. But there is a lot of empty space, I sure hope you got big brakes

    I like the number 2's but to me they almost seem to masculine... with the bolts (multi piece wheel) they come off more industrial...

    Yeah, you can't post the images, it shows up as links?

    Anyways,

    #1 Doesn't look good, way too "spokey", very flat and dull looking
    #2 BEST CHOICE is really nice, aggressive looking, muscular spokes
    #3 THIN spokes, and too "spokey", like a bike, ugly
    #4 2nd best choice, looks nice, but spokes look a bit too boxy and stubby.

    And some of those rims are worth more than my car! LOL!

    First choice - 2
    Second choice - 4

    I don't like the other two whatsoever.

    Where are you getting these wheels anyways? What tires do they come with? They seem awfully expensive for 18's.

    I don't like the choices either.

    If I had to pick : 4
    (Isn't that the same as what is on Kenny's Chrylser?)
