Default Ordering Tuesday, and i cant decide, HELP

Well im ordering my rims on tuesday when i get paid, but the only thing is i cant decide between these 2 rims either the (slate)greenlights or the heliums. slate is just another word for gunmetal right? they'll be going on a 93 dark charcoal gray hatch. i know i just had a post the other day on deciding for rims, but i decided not to choose the FLIK b/c i dont know about their quality when i know Konig makes good products and right now you cant beat the price on these rims on GBC. well thanks once again everybody. ANother thing i though about also is i have yet to see anyone with the greenlights yet online and i have seen a few with the Heliums. lol but oh well. oh and if you have any pics of either of these rims on a car please post the pics, thanks again.

Greenlights

Heliums

thanks for all of the opinions everybody, im still stuck between the two.

dirtySOHC's-
How dark is the slate color? is it just like a normal gunmetal or what? b/c some pics on the net look completely darker than those that i posted.

thanks for the pics man, seeing yours a couple weeks ago when you posted them is what made me want those rims, they look awesome on your ride. if you dont mind could i try and photshop you car to the color of mine? i found a black hatch with a set and it looks really good. so i think im kinda leaning towards the heliums and plus their lighter and i have actually seen them on a few peeps cars online to know exactly what they look like unlike the green lights.

well thanks again everybody for all of the opinions and keep em coming.

They're both great sets of rims for the price, but the only thing I don't like on the greenlights is that the spokes go all the way out to the edge of the rim, not leaving much room for a lip. The heliums are nice, but the spokes are edgey and not rounded out much. Maybe I'm just biased because I have a set of Rota C8's, but between those two, i say heliums, but reconsider and take a look at some C8's...

the greenlights are cool. but i like the heliums better cuz they look like the RH cp8s. i try to avoid the spoke-look.
