which wheel would look best?
Hi Im would like your opinion on which one of these two wheel would look best on my black mx-3.
They are both same size 16x7 +42offset and both weight 15.2lbs.
first one is: RTX WEB Gunmetal with polished lip.
or IKON LITE Black
Here's my car:
wheels I have right now! I love the look but they are too heavy.
thx

Re: which wheel would look best?
I went with the rtx. Especially on a black car, I think an all black set of rims would look dull.

Re: which wheel would look best?
I love the look of a black rim on a black car. I hate chrome too...even just a lip. Not my style. Both are nice looking wheels though.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

I like the stock 5-spoke best. I think they're awesome and super light. They have that mean, beefy look to them. The only downside is that they're not very wide.

949 6UL or Enkei RPF1's if you've got the money.
Super light + strong, and both available in a few different colors.

Re: which wheel would look best?
I will be buying one of those when I have the money, preferably rpf1's because they hold their value the best, but if I can't get them at a really good price then I'll be gettin the 949's.

Re: which wheel would look best?
Personally, I voted for the IKON LITE Black set. Just my preference. Be sure to post up some pics when you decide which one to put on!
