DC-5 or DC-6

I have a GG EVO. Im looking into getting some rims, I've tried looking at other GG evo's and looking to see what color rims looks best.

I like they way these rims look. Dc-5 ver 2
http://www.tenzoracingsports.com/roa...5v2/black.html

But I also like these. Dc-6
http://www.tenzoracingsports.com/roa...6v2/black.html


I know the Ver 1 of these two rims have that red racing strip on it but. Im not a fan of red think.

Is Gunmetal really close to GG?

Thanks all.

the second looks easier to clean and you have room to get betwen the spokes to wash the calipers when you wash your car without taking the wheels off

The DC5 looks nice, but what size are you looking at. According to their price list, the 18x8 really have the right offset for the Evo? Only 25mm and 37mm is available.

The DC6 do have a 35mm offset for 18x8

I'm just wondering why in the heck you'd put Tenzos on an Evo in the first place.

They are the same as Enkies...built in the same plant, with a different stamp on them. Why would anyone put Enkies on an EVO?! Oh wait...they do....

Thanks for letting me know what offset to get for 18x8.
