Default 08 rims.

why are the o8 o9 rims so ugly!!! i will be picking up and 09 model in may. and the wheels bother me so much.

Why are the 5 star rims caved in on? I hate wheel designs that cave in... if anything they should stick out.

i believe the 07 rims were the hottest.

I actually like the 08~09 wheels. Also like the cluster as well.

I like the 09's. I used to like the AP2 v1, but now I like my V2s more. If you don't like the 5-spoke rims I'm sure a lot of people would be willing to trade rims with you.

i like the new design, and i'm sure they'll b a lot easier to clean than my stock ones. my stock rims r such a PITA that i plan on getting some super low dusting brake pads once i need to replace mine (anyone got some recommendations?)

also agree the gunmetal look of the CR's is extra nice

I don't think the 08 and newer rims look that bad, but I like the AP2v2 rims better. But I do have to say the 5 spoke looks wayyy easier to clean. The ones I have (AP2v2) are a pain to clean.
