I like the 18" OEM better. X pack is nice but at that point why not go aftermarket?

LOL.. You mean like if everyone was sporting Volk wheels.. yeah I see what you are saying.

Of course it is subjective when it comes to looks.. just wondering what the hell you are finding attractive with the X-package.

I would say G-spiders

Not X-package. Cause I have them and don't want anyone else to. Plus it's not really and X-pckg.

I guess they remind me of a fancy version of the gen 1 wheel. I always liked the OEM 17s on my gen 1. I would never pay $700 plus each for those wheels though. If i purchased the X-Package initially, I would simply leave them on. Does this explanation make you feel better?

I say IS-F wheels, then you can start building your IS-F clone...

I've never been a fan of the X-package, but just my taste. If it's a coin flip in your mind, go with the wheels that are less common in your area (likely X-pak)...
