I think they look good! But I have this thing about wheels that fit two different types of bolt patterns, I have a tendency to look for wheels that are specific to a single type of bolt pattern. I don't think it's true but my mindset is that they are "more sturdy" and have less room for "error" when mounting and using them on my car. But don't let me change your mind. Also, remember that the bigger the wheels you go, the more costly tires are gonna be. Just food for thought! But what am I saying? I just ordered 18" wheels myself.

Well, like I said, it's just the unusual perception I have with wheel integrity.
I think they'll look great, for sure. I use nothing but Falken tires on my cars so I'll suggest wrapping your wheels with some ZEIX-512s, you'll probably get mixed opinions on these but I think they're great.

Interesting color choice, but i would not worry about some non-brandname wheels bending/cracking etc. unless you are going 4x4ing. Also you said they are cheap well of course non brandname wheels should be.

the wheels u are looking at seem pretty decent, the volante. that first axis wheel you posted id the best of the ones on this post imo. just a lil tip for the tires, the Falken 452s are reasonably priced and I chose those because theres a lot of "meat" or tire tread. these wheels seem like they would last a lil longer than the usual set of low-pros im used to. i might have about 5 or 6K miles on my falken 452s and they still look brand new, i dunno just my opinions
