  4. I like the top ones. They both look flimsy to me, but I like the blacked-out style of the top ones.

  5. Well,never liked chrome on white so the top one for me. However,I would look for one with stronger webbing. Seen a few aftermarket wheels with all hubs ripped out with encounters with curbs and railroad tracks. Only one set of factory wheels with hubs ripped and they were similar style as these. Just my 2 cents. Allan
