Default What wheels to choose

Ok so i have decided to start saving my pennies for new wheels. i have the get summer tires sometime anyway so i figured i would go all out. I have narrowed my choices down to three options, i would get them in Gunmetal with a silve lip but neither wheel comes with that option, nor an option for just gunmetal. both weigh 11lbs

Konig Feather -$538.96 CAD for 4


Falken Hanabi, either Silver or Bronze - $519.96 CAD for 4

What color is your car? Personally, I prefer the Rotas with gunmetal/polished lip. They are a bit heavier at 12.5 lbs (15-inchers), but cost less (about $450 a set). Still, if you are dead-set about getting one of those shown, knowing the car color helps.

White EG hatch, Rotas are hard to find in my area, and ordering them from the US is not an option cause i don't want to bother wuth customs. If i was going to go with Rotas, it would be CT10's hands down. Plus Rota's would be arround $650 for me do to currency changes

i say none of them, try some modified blades, or something else, i just don't think any of them will look that great on a white hatch.

^ lol yeah that was the only thing i was thinking on the Falkens, you have the same ones and i was like... "well i don't want to steal AJ's wheels" lol

Another option were these wheels (Built_eg's hatch). But i can't find them anywhere, and have no idea what kind they are

they look like a knockoff of the SSR Comps. if u have the money, get some real SSR Comps, u wont be dissapointed. u might be able to find a used set for about $600. my friend has like 4 sets of them, real nice wheels and light
