Default Which picture is better?

I had some free time this weekend so I decided to get a new background for my computer. I'm torn between these two pictures. Which one do you guys prefer?
a)


b)

I agree, B.

By the way, I see you have that same side door molding as me and nysupraman have. FYI, I was able to remove mine completely off of my black paint and not leave any scarring behind. I think it looks 10x better without it, and since you have that body kit, IMO it looks really out of place on your door. I think I will put up a post here about how I removed mine with pics of the end result. Just a heads up in case you wanted that thing gone from there.

Do a little photoshop and remove the signs then use #2.

How'd you do that? And can you get rid of the little old lady in the background? She freaks me out

18 inch Volk Le37T. Not only do they clear the supra brakes, 2 of my wheels weigh just as much as 1 of your wheels.

Weren't you researching weight savings? These are among the lightest wheels on the market.

Unless you are running skinnies I don't think both of your rims weigh as much as one of mine...I got light weight Italian Allessio's alloy rims that are also very light in weight ......However, my rear rims are very wide for traction, 10.5's is the width of my rear rims to be exact.....

Anyway, it appears your rims are really nice and expensive and great for weight reduction but not so good for looks...I honestly think you should lower your SC in hope that it would help with your small rim look. If your SC is already lowered then you are pretty much screwed and should probably unload those tiny looking rims for cheap....Come on green small looking rims are you kidding me? Weight reduction isn't that important I would think is it? .. Hey to each his own....... ...No offense just my opinion..
