What wheels to get...

EDIT: I decided to go with option #2, the MB Seven X's. Just too good of a deal to pass up for a good wheel.

I've been shopping for new wheels and need some opinions. I like all of these and can't decide...HELP! You can select more than one option.

mainly for cost reasons. i put a **** ton of miles on this girl and i just fly through tires and buying new 18's all the time gets quite costly. plus the 16's increase mpg. plus both sets of my 18's are now sold and i'm currently running on my winter treads which are also 16's.

i'm deff lovin #3 as most of you are...but the mb wheels are good and much more inexpensive, almost $200 difference.....decisions decisions

yeah but mb's are a good tough wheel and i do plan on autocrossing some this summer. but all i'm real worried about is getting nice wheels. these mb's are nice, i like them, and if i do end up autoxing it'd work out perfect. and the price is a steal. and yeah i'd like to see a pic of yours. send me an email, i think its listed in my profile. thx.

yes yes i know...i wanted to real bad but decided against it. the lip is just too big for a 16. it'd make the wheel look like a 14. for a size 18 or bigger these wheels would be sick.
