Both (the BSA's or the Enkei's) would either be going "chrome" or "black chrome" or "chocolate chrome" or anywhere in between

^i that per rim?? if so WOW - my rays were only like 250!! (16's tho)

i'd have to say at first glance, BSA's, but those do look like a sportier rim for a sportier 'built' car (and hydro's on a car kinda gives the impression urs insn't being built to go fast! :tounge: ) so i'd say go with the Spiders, specially if u do chocolat chrome or black chorme or whatever, that pchop that dougall did was good and they do look good on ur car!

Since I found the Spiders for you, I say SPIDERS!
They suit the style of the car better I think...and NO ONE will have them.
The other, alot of people will have (even I thought about getting them on my 3...that style looks alot bigger than the size they are...ie, my 19's would look like 20's...)

A good reason why I like them...I like rims that do that (that have the spokes reach out right to the lip)

im afraid im going to have to say the Enkei's will cheapen the look of your car, get soemthing more tuner to keep a theme going your car doesnt look luxury at all, it looks more sport... keep it that way and go for the BSA

Rim choice

Be carefull about a rim that has a center cap!! I have a set of rims with center caps and really hate them!! If you do a lot of work on your car its a pain to take the cap on and off all of the time, then after they are a little bit older and you want to polish them, you cant because the center cap is plastic so it does not polish the same as the metal!!! Had to paint my caffine's gun metal because When I polished them it looked like ASSSS!!!

Just thought I would add my 2 cents and maybe save you from hating your choice down the road!!
