i'm a 6 spoke person

either 18s or 19s will make it slow, ride rough and hurt mileage, so might as well go 19

How about not Volk "style" and just flat out VOLK RIMS. Dammit, I hate knockoffs.

I like 5-spokes... and it really depends on the design. For that wheel, I'd go with the 6. I can't help but think of rally cars when I see 6-spoke wheels.

Nothing beats 7 IMO. I don't see many 7 spoke aftermarket wheels though. I'm happy with my 7-spoke Si rims though.

I like the 5 spokes better. Don't really like six spoke wheels.

I prefer the 6 spokes one. You should go with Real Volks, but I guess not everyone can afford them, so we get what we can...
