Default Narrowed Down to two wheels, need opinions.

Since I didn't want to go any larger than 17, I have it narrowed down to these two wheels. I will put wrapping these in Avon Tech M550 A/S, this will be my only set of wheels for all four seasons. Don't have the funds to put new tires on the stockers plus buy new wheels and tires for the summer. The stock 16" chromes are too small and narrow. These are going on a black on black 02 T/A.

Both these wheels specs are:
17x9.5
54mm offset
5x475 pattern
(I read the "does this fit thread" From what I got from it, these will fit i guess )

Sport Editon V6 - Silver Painted $159/ea



Sport Edition V6 MS - Machined w/ black Accent 189/ea


Edit: I have no idea why there is a smilie in my poll

hmm, the top ones seem more passive while the bottom ones look extremely aggressive.

The bottom ones would look killer on a black car. You would get the black to match your car with the accenting silver/chrome to set the wheels off.
