What do you think?

Hey everyone,I'm trying to decide if these wheels would look good on my Vibe. They are hyper-black which from the pics looks like it will go well with the shadow color. I like the style, the only concern I have is that I hope the spokes do not look too skinny. What do you all think? I like the rivets, add more to the design. It also has a machined lip that I think looks good. I am planning to just go with 17"s, save the $150-200 and use that on new springs. Those of you with 17"s, are you happy with the size, or do you regret not getting 18"s?

Look good for lite wheels. I prefer a little fuller look on Vibes. If that color's pretty accurate, I like it. Ussually like silver to balance the rack.

Hmmm, I'm still having a hard time deciding. Here are a few others that I am trying to decide on. I know I should get what I want, but I like them all. Can I get some of your opinions, just like Ragingfish's . TZ-5 Only comes in 17's ($660) H-50 Only comes in 17's ($660) Roma Only comes in 18's ($860) DL-46 Silver in 18's ($860) or Hyper Black in 17's ($750) like the first picture I posted.I'm leaning towards the Roma or the TZ-5. I agree with how goodvibe mentioned the silver looks good with the roof rack.Thanks,Justin

Hey ArcsVibe, I was just editing my post after I posted it. I added the prices and names. Sorry about that.Later,

Oh and by the way, the prices I listed include 4 wheels and 4 Kumho tires mounted and balanced with a lug kit, all shipped to my door. Pretty good deal compared to everywhere else I've looked.

I still have not bought any wheels yet. After doing some more research on MO and MV forums, I have heard some mixed things about wheelmax.com. I'm not sure if I am going to purchase from them or not. Another shop I found, which still is questionable, is www.gotwheelsandtires.com. I like this wheel . They are only $880 for 18"s with Nankang tires. I had never heard of Nankang before, and their website is quite funny. I recommend you check it out at http://www.nankang.com.tw/eindex.htm. They are a Korean manufacturer and their tire descriptions make no sense! Horrible translations LOL!My question is, has anyone had any experience with any three of these companies: Wheelmax, Gotwheelsandtires.com, and Nankang Tires?Thanks,

The very first one would look better on a Civic.Personally, I'd like a "fatter" 5-spoke or a 6-spoke.The very last one posted should be good for Vibe.Enkei RS6 would be perfect.

Yeah, I agree. I just don't think the first ones look right on the Vibe. I like the Roma (6 spoke) and the wheel from gotwheelsandtires.com best. I'm not in any hurry to get my wheels, so I'll just get them whenever I decide. I checked with a local tire shop and they want the same 18"s from gotwheelsandtires.com with tires for $1500. I would rather do business locally, but not for such a huge price increase. Later,
