So many wheels, only one car!!

I can't decide between 6 spoke or 8 spoke rims. I am looking at:

ADR Sokudo 17x7 Gunmetal

Konig Absolute 17x7 Graphite

Tenzo R Mean 6 17x7 Gunmetal

ADR Ricochet 17x7 Gunmetal

I really can't decide. They are going on a Silver 2002 Acura EL. Anyone seen any of these wheels in person?

i would recommend the konig absolutes even though people in this forum rave more about the other 3 wheels. thats a good thing because it would be a lil different from the rest, and it looks pretty nice. i would get em but can't afford wheels right now.

I personally love the 6 spoke rims [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] I couldn't decide between 6 or 7 when I was shopping for wheels...I went 6 spoke and I'm very happy with the look of my car!

i would say the tenzo r mean 6. i lke 6 spoke wheels. but actually, i like 5 spoke wheels more. i don't think many people like 5 spoke wheels, though. i don't see them in a lot of rides.
