Default Help me decide what color wheels to get

several of you saw my MRS, but it's the toyota Dark Blue if you haven't.

So what color rims should I get or which kind?

1. Konig Heliums, 17", Bronze, 16.2lbs


2. Buddy Club SF, 17", White, 17lbs

I know the these come in gunmetal, but I don't think it looks good, but would white be too ricey?

Any thoughs would be greatful... thanx.

RICE!!!

Simon, Blue n Bronze is awsome like WRX. White and blue is good but to me it is alittle RICE! Gunmetal made also do the job!

Say NO to Konigs.. 95% of all their wheels are ripoffs of other manufacturers and of bad quality at that! Lets just call them the APC (A Piece of Crap) of the wheel manufacturers.

Get the SSR Competitions (light but slightly more costly), Kosei K1's (light and low priced), or Rota Slipstreams (imitation wheels but of good quality, lightweight, and the lowest priced.)

Maybe I'm old fashioned, but my preference is for silver wheels...

Kosei K1 is the wheel Sport Compact Car used on their project car, and I thought it looked awesome on the MR2.

I think black or gunmetal in the Buddy Club design will look nice on the blue. Then again, you can't go wrong with silver.

Given the two choices, I'd pick #2, but I like the color of #1 better. In fact, I like #1's looks and color, but not the brand (Konig).

P.S., Brad, did you get my PM from a few days ago?
