Default Help me choose my wheels...

Im trying to figure out what wheels i should put on there. i have a grey 4dr ef below and i want to see my options and hear your opinions. Personally i wanted to either do gt-3s (but not sure on color), silver circuit 8s, black or silver slips or ls mesh wheels (16 spokes). Maybe if some of you can photoshop some wheels that you think would look nice, i would like to see. Thanks.

i was going to do that but i held off. as far as the rust goes, im going to get all that cut out and have new metal put in and repainted the factory color. so the only reason i ask is because these wheels are going to go on after paint.

ive seen a few ef sedans with those and it does look pretty clean. i have a local guy that wants to sell me a set for 245 and one has a scuff mark from curbing. is that a reasonable offer? ive seen mint sets go for 250-300 around here.
