[D-Man]

I would go with the Koings.... But thats me...

[95CelicaST]

I vote for neither.

[Celica power]

are those 2 the only option you have
if so I will go for konings

[illneversellmyce...]

well be my guest on posting some other examples up, i jsut dont want an all black rim

[Shink]

Honest opinion? Not liking either very much.

You should consider something...less last year. Black is out, and chrome is out. Matt colours are in, as are more spokes. 5 spokers split into pairs are very hot. Also, bunched 10 or 12 spokes are in. Gun metal is the future. On a black car, consider white or bronze, or matt black/gun metal for the stealth look. Add silver dishes for the bling.

Here are my suggestions...purely suggestions mind
Wolfrace Shark


Kei RSS Hyperblack


Kei Kruze Hyperblack


Kei Force 10 Hyperblack


Rota Torque Bronze


Rota Formula Gold


Note: Fitments may not be available, just suggesting some styles.

It's your car and your rims and you have to look at it every day, and you should love your wheels, but you did ask

Also, Celicas take 5x100, not 5x114.3 so you might want to look into that.

And why not post some pics of your car? Someone might photoshop some wheels on for you.

i like those force 10's they look good to me =)

[illneversellmyce...]

ill post some pics tonight, ones in my pro are gettng old. oh im not worreid about trends or fads. Ive had my motegi's alloys for years and i want something in black/chrome style. Did like the hot swap at first but too many people have em. Appreciate all the input so far

[Shink]

i like those force 10's they look good to me =)

They would look so good on a black car, eh? And those spokes would make the wheels look massive. Those are my favourites, but they're expensive!!!

[illneversellmyce...]

yeah i saw 689 not bad, then i saw the it was in euro's ouch lol

[jason]

thats crazy expensive.... but they would look sooooo good!!!!!!

[illneversellmyce...]

1,017 bucks US its doable, more then i want to spend, but ill ponder on it

*also i just found the 5 x 100 thanks for that info*

Dude, if you are going to choose only between those two, then I would go with those ghetto Konig.

When I get my rims, I am going to roll with ADR.

[illneversellmyce...]

konig are ghetto..yeah ok whatever , dont think so... i thnk that headband is ghetto, but doesnt matter what i think. and roll on what you want, this thread was about my choices not yours. But im not the arguing type so we'll leave it at that. Hope yours turns out like you want

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-7-Konig-...p3286.m20.l1116

both of those are the wrong bolt pattern.
id keep looking around for something a little less wild.

You have this backwards.

[illneversellmyce...]

i know i need 5 x 100 those are just pics for refrence jeez , aight mods close this thread i got my info thanks

in my own opinion, any black and chrome rims like that don't look good at all. I like black with a polished lip, but that's different. now, most people on this website, or I guess I should say most import tuners really. what most people are into these days are gold, bronze, and gunmetal wheels. now, I'm not saying that because most people are into them means that you should get them. However, I really like getting compliments on my car. after putting a lot of work and money into it, it just feels good. I'd hate to constantly hear "Dang, looks great, except for those wheels, but other than that..." anyway, you asked for opinions, so there's mine.

I actually have a set of those Rota Torques that are shown above on the way for me right now I can't wait.

[CelicaST_CALI]

kinda crapy...its trial so i cant save them..
