IMO, it's a toss up.. Both are great wheels, and I think the 5zigens would look great on your EK. The rotas look already look really good as well.

Aren't the slipstreams a tiny bit lighter?

The reason i would say to do the trade is that the pattern and color look better. Why dont you put them on if your trading with a buddy or something and see how it looks

Unlike the 5th gen hatch the 6th gen looks better with 16's. Either way the car looks GREAT.
