Default Need opinions

Im in the Process of trying to pic out some rims for my car.
i really wanted to get 18x7.5 Rota Subzeros in gunmetal, but the place i wanted to buy them from doesnt have them instock and doesnt know when they will have them instock (they had really good prices on them too)

then i saw these, they looked good on tire rack (where you can preview what the wheels look like on the car. but i just thought id try to get some other opinions.

IMHO, the rims that show too much of the rotors/calipers look lame on the tC.
If you were to upgrade the aforementioned parts, I'd say yes, those are cool.
I only base this on all the pix I've seen here and elsewhere.

thanks for the honest opinion,

what about these wheels, i know they are fairly common but they are reasonably priced and i think they would look really good on the flint mica tC

I've seen those and they're really nice looking.

I'd look hard at other's pix and try to see some in person.

I like the 1st ones personally alot better then the Konig. The Konig looks to much like the upgraded rims for the scion.

Honestly, your opinion is right-on. I love the stockers, and yes, they do look like upgraded units!
That's why I like them

I have 18" 5Zigens with a TRD Drop and love them! These Enkeis are pretty cheap. I might have to sell my 5Zigens.
