Need Opinion on Rims: I'm serious this time

I know there's countless of threads of which rims to get. Believe me I've been guilty of that too and to this day still got steelies. But this time I'm serious. I actually have some extra income to get some rims. I need it more than ever cuz with my new body kit it on, my baby needs some new shoes or heels, .
Here's some pix of my ride to get an idea.

I've narrowed it down to these three rims, for looks and price (important factor).

Nice ! you have the ACCOLADE skirts and rear.. looks good... I think a gunmetal rim would look good as well, it will contrast better in my opinion.

thanks Dave~! I was thinking of gunmetal before, but I think I'm gonna go with silver. Put that extra shine on the ride.

i like the first and last one. enkei actually makes rims that look almost identical to the last ones. i think they are called the RS5's, but im not 100% sure. I've seen them on someone's lancer and it looks great.

hey bob. Yeh Enkei makes rims identical to those. RS5. I found a vendor on clubcivic.com hookin it up on enkei wheels. I'll check out how much they run for. Cuz the RSS Kama are going for $100 a rim. Pretty good price. I just think they might look too skinny on my kit .

Give me some more input guys~!

Who voted for steelies!? I can take it if u think the rims of my choice are no good...but the scuffed up hubcaps someone actually likes?

Seems like the Rydox are winning on the poles. It's too bad I can only get them in silver. If not, I'd get them in hyperblack. They're on sale at wheeldiscount.com for $699 with tires. Not bad. Anyone have any feedback on that site?

I voted for the ADRs, but the 5 spokes are a very close second choice. I had some 5 spokes on my car at a recent show and they didn't look too skinny on the car; even in the back with those pitiful drums.

thanks for the vote Ghost. I've seen the Enkei and RSS rims on the lancers and a similar version of the ADR rims our on rides too. So you can say I'm playing it safe a lil on the rims, cuz these all look good on our rides. But I don't think anyone has put the ADR RYDOX on their rides yet, I don't believe. Second choice for me is the Enkei RS6. When pearlwhiteoz had these rims, i fell in love.
