#1 because they look like BBS LMs, my dream wheels! I'd go with 17s or 18s though.

the first one is a 5 lug...just in case you didnt know. both look cool...if they were a known brand it would be better. if i had a blue versa i would be looking at gold rims as well.

silver- that is why i like them also, because i will never be able to aford the real thing.
lain- the pic is 5 lig yes, but the wheels itsefl is 4x114.3. and they are a known brand, they have been arounf for years.

i just cant decide if i want to go with a classic look with #1, or go with the old school look with #2.

i hate wheel shopping!

Depends on the look you want the mesh ones are used a lot on the Matrix, but will play larger. Your second choice has a more staggered look to them which would look good with the 1"-1.5" extra drop. Either way it will look clean good luck choosing.
