what do you think of these rims?
I've attached two pics. I originally wanted lowenhart BR5, but I saw these wheels (same manufacturer-Iswear) exact same style but $600 less than the lowenhart. I also attached an extra pic, I'm undecisive, I am afraid to chose wrong wheel. Any suggestions please let me know as I'm purchasing this weekend.
BTW as I posted on earlier thread I'm installing Lorinser kit and Eibach/H&R spring

With only these 2 choices, I would say #2, but to me chrome doesn't look too good on a white car.

IMO, #2 has a more rugged look, but I tend to prefer wheels w/ an odd number of spokes...overall, #2.
