I think the Koing's would look really good. My second choice would be the MB's.

touch choice. I'm not a big fan of the first two ( not a fan of that many spokes).
I think you should photoshop them on your car, post a pic of that and then we can vote on what actually looks best

well looks like i made my choice to go with the konigs...flat black deep lip.

my first ever rim purchase and im hoping they look good when they go on friday. then i get my windows tinted saturday so il have pics up and posted sunday hopefully and then u guys can see my new baby all purty and bootiful.

total price mounted balanced and lugs etc etc. came out to 750 and the guys hookin me up with free balancing/rotations for a year cuz we got to chit chatting.

thnx for the input and what not.

Konig Runaway

I would pick the Konig Runaway for youe color scheme. Very classy and subdued, but enough to make you look.

MB, the first one would look weird on an 8 imo, the 2nd one doesn't look as clean as the MB.

I would choose which one was lighter if aesthetics wasn't a big issue.

so last night i started getting second thoughts and then triple thoughts about not doing the rims lol. my gf talked me back into it saying it would be sexy or at least better than the stock ones with scuffs. il be glad once they are on and im stuck with em lol. and if i dont like em i can trade them to my friend who has a badass set of rays wheels he doesnt want anymore.
