personally id get the second ones if it wer my car. but thats just beacause im not a fan of big chromies.
but both look awsome on your car really. if you like it to stand out id say the chromes.

I normally don't like things as flashy as the wheels in the first pic but on this occasion I think the flashier wheels suit your car better.

Are either of them E-Series offset or they both require hub adapters?

Go the chromies, even though I'm not a big fan of them, they look better than the other rims. Plus as you said they go with the other chrome you've got on the car.

I cant decide either, I kinda lean towards number two, because they show off the brakes a bit, and suit EB shape a bit more.
Do a poll, then just do the traditional poll thing and do the opposite of what wins.

The second ones look a bit weird, if all the spokes were the same style I'd probably like them more.

I agree with Max, the chromies would look mint on a Stato or LTD or something. The second ones are very Senator, shows off the chrome highlights a bit more :)
Id go for the 2nd ones.

The second set shit on the first set.

The first set of wheels look rediculous - visually they look extremely heavy, and in that pic the back one looks like it could even be a polished steelie :roll: they make me think of a remote control car that I saw in toys'r'us last christmas...the second set are about a billion times hotter.

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up.

i like the chromies, they tie in with the gauges nicely. Plus the car has that western suburb's spec look to it which is mad....no gay spoilers or body kits or anything.

i think it comes down to class or bling, you cant have both.? i think im leaning towards class? either rim will make my car look good, but it depends what look im going for i think.
