Vision legend 5. Here is a link to the 18x9.5 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18x9-...Q5fAccessories
The 17x9 looks completely different. Both wheels look good if you ask me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-x9...Q5fAccessories

17's are a total TTM knock-off but the 18's look good. Any idea on the quality of these?

Those HP evos are sexy, they cost a pretty penny too. Probably the best rims for a pewter or gunmetal car imho.
