I kinda like the C-5's better, the other ones look like a knock off of my Volk LE28N's.

That's the first thing I noticed. Either way, I like the C5 knockoffs. The first ones look too much like Volks, and I just don't like the idea of knocking off Volks.

all wheelmax has is knockoffs...from what i've heard they are a fairly crappy company...but back onto the original decision...i would go to c5s if you want silver wheels, but the v-8s in gunmetal with polished lip look really good also. so, it depends on what you want. good luck.
