Default wheel choices

I have narrowed down my wheel choices to one brand and three designs. What do you guys "think" will look best on a silver 01? Thanks
Here it is now with borrowed wheels from my supra. 18x10 with 265 40s and 18x9 with 235 40s. beefy tires




first choice



second choice



third choice

I love HRE wheels. Though my favorite is their meshed 3 piece. Their wheels are quite pricey too

all depends on the look your going for really...

the first one i think is more luxurious look

being that im 17 im more into fastness and sporty cars (dont get me wrong i cudnt love my ls430 more)

i really like the 3rd one

good luck with your choice

I like the 3rd wheel as my first choice, and the 2nd wheel as my plan B.

I don't necessarily like the second wheel the best, but I think it might look better on this car than the third & the first . . .
