i like the spoke design of the second one better; however it's too close to oem for aftermarket wheels in my opinion.

They both are spokely similar to the oem but i suppose the color is what stands out.
Where i am, they silver only comes in 18s, the black i can get 19s.

Im going to vote both ways, it really depends on what look youre going for. I think the first is more of a racey look and the second is more OEM/subtle look.

Check your lighting or screen brightness level, you can see it.
@iSuxeL , i know what you mean, that and also if i go aftermarket wheel i should get something different not oem-like.

I love the lip on the first one, but the rims are very dark. The second pic of the rims are very good but as others have said, they look stock.

I'd go for the one on top providing it doesn't look like that photo chopped pic. If they will be staggered 19s, they will look good on your ride (IMO). The second one looks almost like the OEM rims.

the black ones would look great on a GS. maybe you should lighten up the exposure to give it a more appealing look.

I think Ace Manta's really look great on silver...I mean Tungsten Pearl cars.
