I like the 6 spokes also because the lip on the 5 spokes looks way too deep and will make the wheel look smaller.

i like the 5 spokes, looks like the Rota Slipstreams. i think the 6 spokes are too boxy and thick. i think the thinner, more curvaceous look of the 5 spokes will look nicer on the lancer.

odd numbers seem to be more appealing... go with the 5... the 6 spoke make it look too symetric.

I'm a stickler for symmetry myself but I went with a 5 spoke wheel. I like the offset look it gives.

In this case though, go for the 6! The lip on the 5 spokes are gonna make the wheels look like they're one size smaller. I've compared my wheels side by side against my roommate's and mine look bigger. He had Exel's with the spokes tucking under the lip and I have Racing Harts with the spokes extending all the way out.
