I have found a set of 5zigen wheels that I really like and I photoshopped them on my Speed 6. I wanted to post the pics and get some opinions. The car in the pic isn't mine (thanks michael) but it is exactly the same in terms of color and ride height. Let me know what you think.

Nice, clean look.

They're the exact color I would be getting. I stole the rim pic from the for sale post I'm getting them from. I guess it's silver?

I would get them in hyperblack, but those are my favorite looking rims so far.

Like the 5 spokes but don't like the color. Maybe it's in the orginal pic (lo-res). On my screen, it looks greenish teal. Weird color to have on Titanium Grey, but that's my opinion.

The pic is more for the possible look. The color of the wheels is similar to OEM silver, it did get distorted due to the low res pic I used for the chop. These wheels are used and in need of some TLC so I planned on repainting the center and repolishing the lip. I just wanted to see what you guys thought of the design.

I'm not a huge fan of those. I think the design of them makes them look small.

I bought em. I'll post pics once they're on. They were only $400 bux with a decent set of tires that I can take off and sell (they are 215/35-18, the wheels came off a speed protege). The only thing I want to do is repolish the lip. They actually look really good on the MS6. The front brakes fill the wheel so nicely.
