RIMS for CL - Need Input!

The first rims pictured are the Lowenhart LD1s which is a very popular design that everyone has.

The 2nd rims pictured (I had to cut and paste them in) are the Zauber Glanzen SLs which will be available soon.

Both are staggered, front- 20x9, rear - 20x10. Tell me what you think.

Also - if you can think of other cool rim designs in those dimensions, please post! (I like the dish look).

I'm not a fan of either myself. The 2nd set is terrible.

LD-1

I saw these Lowenhart rims that are the style of LD-1's, but are 6 stars. I think those would look tight!. Definitely have to go staggard from front to rear. The car wont look right unless you do.
