Default Which rims to get?

I don't know which to go for, these pictures don't give the real world perspective, anybody happen to have these on their monte and can snap some pics?

Default Warning!!!!

I have the black ASA JH8 wheels. Read the sticky on them. Get the smallest wheel spacers you can get with those wheels. Avoid problems with these.
