It depends on how far you're going. If you're going to complete the look, the first two. If you're just going to lower it a little the third would look nice.

What do you mean "complete the look"? I plan on getting a mild body kit and lowering it for visuals.

Enkei PKR hands down!!!!

on the contrary, they are sold at work, they look a lot better in that pic.

btw, dont do a universal lug pattern, just my opinion

from the choices given, I'd go with the Drift 506 wheels.

I, personally, would go with either of these if I had your car. Maybe not the color , but definitely this particular wheel.

506 - The others are too busy. Definitely not the Enkei.

Man... there's some conversations you have to sit back, listen, and know the participants before you open your word hole. I hope your foot is clean.

I see the drifz are winning. Some Gram's would be clean, as well...

I think the thicker spoke wheels look better on that car.

The first two are "sport" looking, if that makes sense. The kit and the lowering will be perfect for the first two. If you were just going to lower it I would have gone w/the third.

I think the Enkeis just look heavy. I like the 5Ziggen Pro Racer GN's.

number three or four. having 10 bolt holes when only 5 are needed is not something that i find particularly attractive.

Here are a couple others that would look good too. Tire Rack suggests to go with a 215/40-18 on your car.
