Default Which wheels should I get?

These are the wheels I'm trying to decide between. Both are very light weight and either 18x9 or 18x9.5. Going on a Tungsten Gray GT.

The thinner the spokes the more you see what's behind the wheel. Those spokes are mighty skinny man so you better have some nice eye candy to look at, and it better be clean behind there as well.

Believe me, I know. Mine aren't as thin as thosebut they still allow the eye to wander to the brakes and suspension [&:]

IMO I agree with the comment on too thin showing too much. Take a look at Amer Muscles FR500s or my favorite the Shelby GT500 wheel.
