imo, the RX-6 on ssm is clean, looks great, but those wheels on bsp is meh.

to be honest i'm not a fan of the FN or the RX on your color but i'm less of a fan of the FN. but, if you have your heart set on using one or the other....

RX, imo because the FN is kinda 90s looking.

jmo, whatever that is worth.

i appreciate your opinion surfcity....my heart's not set on them.....i just want the tuner look in a quality rim (no black rims) preferably gun metal or silver......5 or 6 spoke only....no more than $900 shipped....any other suggestions in that case then?

imo, any aftermarket wheel would give it a "tuner look", however, "quality rim" and 9 bills limits you a bit (unless i misunderstood and you meant "each", jk) .

i also can't offer up what i like in silver or gun metal because personally i think your color needs black with a polished lip.

jmo, of course. i'd check tire rack.

dont be cheap on wheels..900 dollar for wheels is not really gonna get you anything. 5zigens are great, and they are cheap but thats about as far as it goes for quality wheels, well enkeis are alrite. im thinking of spending 2000 on my rims.Work XSA 02C but thats just me, you have to pay to play. plus, rims can really make your car stand out...IN A GOOD WAY. just save up some more for a quality rim. i suggest the Sport Max 003..they are less than 200 for the 17's, and they weigh about 15lbs...cant get better than that

consider this poll done.....fn-01r's win big time.....they're my top choice right now....however those sportmax's are light as can be....17.6 lbs for the 18s.......not too shabby....not sure if i like the design yet though....who knows...i need to get a chop of the 003's and then maybe run another poll on those vs. fn-01r's....thanks for the opinions everyone

Your wish is my command...
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...100&vid=008806

BTW-Ain't nothing wrong with 'budget' NAME-BRAND rims. My tC is a daily driver and it always will be. So, I really don't have a need for lighter rims because I'm not going to "track-it". There's other stuff I can buy for my tC with the $$$ saved. Plus, expen$ive rim$ = 'low-budget' hoods trying to steal them.
