Trying to decide between two sets of rims. Both are from Axis, Axis - VPD (Gunmetal), and the Axis - Maglite (Graphite).

I really like the Maglites, the VPD are my second choice. Just wanted to see what you guys think is a better choice.

Makes alot of sense, pretty light weight (without tires). They only come in 15's or 17's. While the VDP's come in 16's and 17's. So going with the 16's would be much cheaper, and they look good also (atleast to me). I do like the Maglites though, I also had to idea to buy the VDP's first, and than in a few months buy the Maglites with really sticky tires. Most likely I will go with the Yoko AVS100 (I think that's it) on the VDP's (size 205-50-16 I think is the close enough to the right size). Thanks for the responses :D

a pair of maglights for the track would be fine, just dont drive on the street often w/ them.

im not big on "black" wheels, or 4-spoke wheels either, but of the two, id have to say the 5-spoker's

i like most 5 spoke wheels, not all, but most.

but again, its all a matter of personal taste, get what you like, and good luck!

The 16" VPD's would look sharp on your car.

The maglites?:p

Yes, it might take a few months to pay off my credit card (bought the Mugen hood and wing, and a Dell computer for my sister). Then I have will go with the 17" VDP's, with some Nitto Extremes on them. Then mybe a year later, I will get the 15" Mag-Lites with some DOT legal slicks. Any kind of body kit will have to wait much longer.
