I can't decide between these two wheels. The Panasports are a bit cheaper and have brand new rubber. Weds have 90% tread left on some JDM tires.



Panasport C5CR

16x7 +25 205/55ZR16 front17x8 +25 225/50ZR16 rear



Weds Sports RS517x7 +35 215/45R17 Trampio17x8 +35 235/45R17 Trampio

I know its up to me but I just cant decide. I need some feedback.

personally.. id say neither... panasports are just too plain.. and im not a fan of black on black... but.. if those are the rims you want, id go with the weds.. unless you get the panasports powder coated to a bronze .. id go for the weds..

i myself wouldnt get either. the black ones are pretty ugly with that paint color combo but would probably look decent silver face polished lip. and i personally think 16s are lame so i wouldnt get thoes panasports. just me

ps are you aware that thoes pics of the wheels are different bolt patterns

weds only looks nice in the pic bc theres something to fill the void (big brakes, which i assume you wouldnt have)

id say neither as well.if youre getting em cheap, go with pana and paint it or powdercoat it bronze.

I just used the first photo of the Weds I could find. Hence the big brakes and 5 lug. Thanks for the opinions.

I'm not a big fan of either, but the Weds would look better with a polished lip.

Unless youre getting a real good deal, or you're a big fan of these wheels, I'd wait for another deal to come along.

Nice looking car BTW. I'm digging the clean look with the shaved door handles. You mind sharing a front end pic?

Id go with the Weds only because of the tires. The redline is a bit off for my taste.
