Which Wheels to Choose

I'm planning on buying some wheels for the cobalt but not quite sure which ones to get.

Please give suggestions thanks.

Pics below are in order.

Go with the 17 inch Black Motegi RT5 rims. That's my opinion.
The 17 inch Black Riax Sebring rims will look too small on the car.
Whatever you do don't go chrome, please!

I've seen those casino's on a few cobalts already, and although I'm not all about the "bling" factor, they do look damn nice for the money

I was thinking about getting the Riax Sebrings but I like the look of the other 2 choices and black w/ chrome lip fits on any car really and I'm not quite sure on how the other 2 would look on a white Cobalt. I don't want to get the Rt5's and have seconds thoughts once i buy them and put them on the car then I would be stuck with them and as far as the chrome casinos I test fitted one at local rim shop and thats the only one they had from my 3 choices and it didn't fit the car in my opinion. The Riax sebrings are pretty cheap like $400 shipped or so and the Rt5's are $414 picked up locally.

its a lot to ask but does anyone know how to photoshop the 2 black wheels on a white cobalt I have a pic if needed. I also used tirerack.com but no wheels above were listed.

thanks in advance

the ones I found are on tiresdelivered.com or cheaper on ebay.com search riax sebring.

I had a change of the heart and now I don't want either of them. Going with 18's 215/40/18 but still searching on wheels that will look good on a White Cobalt. I don't want to spend 1k-2k on wheels and not feeling them. Sorry for those that responded to this thread and voted.

Any thought on what wheels would like nice on a white cobalt?
