between the two wheels....

i found these two wheels while surfing the net and i am having trouble picking between the two. i know theyre pretty old style because i dont see them in Enkei's website anymore. i like how they look and theyre lightweight and they are on my budget (part time student/employee) . Anyways, i need an opinion and im open to other suggestions as well..

I like the 2nd one better. The wider gaps between the spokes would look better on a lancer.

personally i wouldnt go with either of them, the spokes are too thin, would only be good if you had some huge brembo brake upgrade you wanted to show off

I agree with this. Try something like an Enkei Evo 5 rim...something with fat spokes would look better since the Lancer is a fat-looking car.

here's a quick photoshop (quality isn't great, sorry)







It's hard to say which would look better. It depends somewhat on the color of the car. Personally I like the wider spoke rims, but like someone else said it would look best if you had some nice custom brakes.

I saw this from the marketplace thread and they look similar to the rsv's, and other brands, but im not too sure about the color. the other choices they have is either bronze or gold but im not really a big fan of those two. will it look right on the tarmac black or wicked white color???
