    Talking yup...

    ...bottom ones definately. They'll probly look bigger and the top are actually more difficult to clean and keep clean, speaking from experience. Good luck....x

    really? i would have thought the bottom wheel would be harder to clean since it's got a jillion right angles/corners all the way around the rim and inside corners have always given me the most trouble as far as collecting dirt and then cleaning it out when it comes time to shine things up.

    in that case - based on actual experience and not just theory - i'll change my vote! note - i'm still going with the one that's easiest to clean though. from a looks standpoint they both look good to me - shiny and round.

    actually the stock wheels look best to me because they're shiny and round - and already paid for!

    Bottom for sure. Very unique and strong. The top looks like just about every other aftermarket wheel in existence.

    I'm really ogling a certain set of wheels now myself. Assuming no one really knocks my socks off and gets them for me over the holidays or something (which I seriously doubt), I'm getting them in January. And I never really gave a rip. I mean, a lot of you have really nice rims, but I was happy with stock. But then that one set came along that just bit me and wouldn't let go.
