Default I need an opinion on rims please...

the rims will go on my milano red integra.. the colors shown are the ones i want also.. the costs of the wheels is only a $20 difference, so that doesnt matter. i just want to know what u guys think will look better..

Velox VX-8 (Gunmetal.. i know it looks black)


Rota Slipstream (Steel Gray)


its gonna go on this..

They both would look great on your car but I personally would go with the Velox VX-8.

I say flip a coin. Heads go with Velox. Tails go with Rota. If you end up getting heads(Volex) and you want to flip again, that means you really want the Rotas! Or viceversa

My opinion I like the Veloxs, but I think the Rotas look better on your car.

The Rotas would be best. Since you have a red teg the Velox will not look good. If you had a black or a grey teg it would look a lot better.

Are you concerned with performance? The Velox wheels look like they might be heavier.
