Konigs or Enkeis

http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/int...9753&rc=WASINT
It wont let me get the direct link but choose the color red
The Konigs are the Tractions
The Enkeis are the FLC-01
Im leaning towards the Konigs since well they seem original but just wanted to see what all of you thought

Yeah since they will be my summer wheels im not trying to go to far out with them. Not saying I'm a cheap *** but there is not point in spending a grand a wheel or something unless its a show car. Said that I do like the Enkeis good brand sexy look and not to expensive.

I just want to know between the two suggested rims which one do you think would look best on my car the only other appearance mods I will do is fender strakes and a boot lip spoiler for the back. So the rims would be the most notable mod done on the exterior. I want a stock look but with a little extra.

the RPF1s are probably one of the most popular wheels on the board (probably too much in my opinion) and you don't like them and like konigs which no one (including myself) like. sooo.....if you want the opinion of the board, you're going to be getting our opinion which seems to differ drastically from yours.

oh, ask XDEEDUBX about the strakes. i think he's the one who likes them the most just be sure to also mention to him taht you're leaning toward konigs over enkeis.
