I guess the middle ones since those are the only choices, but I personally don't like any of them a great deal.

I say go with a gunmetal classic 5 spoke with polished lip. Those have too many spokes for my tastes.

I'd go with the dp6s, but like everybody else, I don't go nuts over any of them. But, to each his own.

I personally wouldn't put Motegi's on my car if you gave them to me. We sell a lot of those rims here for the scions, and we've had nothing but problems with them, especially with the clear coat peeling off. Plus, they are very cheaply made. I like the last ones the best, then the first ones on Flyin's car.

Of all those, I would have to say the DP12's, but in gunmetal, not black.

And of course, I'm bias, and I say I like my rims the best out of all those options.
