Need help / advice

Alright so I'm looking into getting some eyelids...out of these two , which do you like better?

I'm thinking about getting some new wheels...
I don't mind the stock ones but the lady that
owned the car before me put some serious curb
rash on them so....any suggestions on some wheels?
I would like to get 19's, but if I stuck with 18's then
I could just swap my tires over seeing how I just
bought them and that would save me some cash.

I say go with the ones on the red car, the first link I think. They are a little less over the top.

I'd go with the ones on the Ti-Gray. Much more aggressive look. I actually have a WB as well and I have 5zigen FN01r-c's, coincidentally they are for sale also. They are the silver ones that use to be on the Vivid Racing Pepsi RX-8. You could own a piece of rotary history .

18x8.5 in the front, 18x9.5 in the back. PM me if you're interested.

For some reason I like the ones on the gray car a little better because they look a little more aggressive.

I don't that much of a difference between the two however.

The ones on the gray 8 are more aggressive but on the other hand the other ones still give it an aggressive look while sticking with the original lines of the headlight.

No eyelids. But if forced, the first for sure.

So you think that Alucard's wheels don't look right?
