help me choose quick~~~

Im looking at these three wheels. They are all 17" with 235/45/17 tires. Here are pics of them.

1. Katana K6 http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/Katana/k6.gif

2. Exel H60 http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/exel/h60.gif

3. Katana T5 http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/exel/h60.gif

and other one is used from Ebay same tire/rim size but tires only has 30% tread left. And the seller wants $600 shipped for it. Here is a picture of the rim HP Racing Hurricane http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/HP/hurri.gif

by the way those new rims are running $950 shipped. Let me know which one you like the best out of these. I have 1997 Pearl White with Spring/AGX and Stillen Body kit with Wingswest Touring Spoiler.

thanks,
Tae

thanks,

The ones im my home page are puny @ss 16's with 225/50/16. My 18's should arrive mon or tues. If your gonna go with 235's you should probably get 40 series tires. Especially if you want the thin low profile look.

My vote is for the Katana K6

I don't like the second or third choice and they look too much alike

Thanks to your inputs Ive just ordered Katana K6's. Now should I get 235's or 225's? The guy over the phone was telling me if I dropped my car I should get 225's is that true? I have Spring/Agx.

thanks,
Tae

IMO, Enkei RS5 is a great looking wheel for the max. I dont know if that meets you price range, but its probably close. I have seen these on ebay a couple of times. It seems that most any wheel that has a clean six or five spoke design will look great on any max,

Also, i didn't see the fourth wheel choice on this thread. So now if these were the last four wheel choices on earth i would most definitely choose number four.
