I've always been a fan of the split-5-spoke design, especially with a polished lip around dark spokes. What size are you planning to get, if you do end up with the aftermarket ones?

it depends on style. i like oem look, so i kept first ones. second rim is very nice but it gives your car a more aftermarket look.

The second ones on your car, to me, make it look like a Subaru Legacy for some reason. I like the Si rims, even though you've already made up your mind.

im keeping si rims cause everything ive seen weighs too much. im not taking performance hit just to have better looking rims. and all the lightweight rims suck or cost $500 each.
