Default c8s or sub-zeros?

Ok, now before anyone says "dont worry about what we think, do what you want" I just want to say I know I want one of these two wheels. I just can't decide between the two. What do you think would look better on my white 95 hatch, bronze c8s or bronze sub zero's? I would also consider sub-zero's in gunmetal with a polished lip. I just cant decide between the two. Here's a pic of the car.

P.S. I'd love to buy real MF8s or some Racing Harts, but all my money's tied up in my turbo project, so no can do there.

Should have said this before, they will be 16" so I can re-use my current tires.

but maybe that weight is directed towards the outer edge of the wheel...just plain dry weight of the wheel is less important than the actual design and placement of the weight...just something to think about...but i'm starting to like the subzeros more and more.

Im not a fan of white on white. I had some white Gram Lights on my car for a day that I could have gotten super cheap, but I really didn't like the look so i didnt buy them.
