I like the first option. The gt500 wheels look okay but not on your car.

GT500 hands down. The red and black theme is so played out, and to be honest? Kind of looks like crap. The silver wheels makes your car much more vibrant.

GT500's have more tire width? WIN!

Want the black center, paint 'em

I really do like the black GT500s.
Maybe I will get them powder coated, if I take them.
Yeah the tire width on the GT500s look 10x better, so if I take my black rims back I will be getting new tires as soon as I can swing it.

They both look good, but I like the GT500's just alittle more.

ive never liked the torque thrusts much on any cars... (weird, i know...)
that said, black looks way better than that polished finish on the GT500. they just don't look right.

what exactly is the finish on them? The black GT500's posted would look pretty good. I am still not sold on that spoke pattern for your car though....
