Wheel choice poll. Thanks for your time.

Okay boys, what's up? I have a white 99 SE-L. I'm ordering wheels this Friday. I have it down to 2. The Enkei ZR-1s or the Motorsport Weapons. Both are Gunmetal in color. Or if anyone has either of these wheels on a white Max, please post pics. I'm going with 18x8. The Motorsport Weapons are on Directtire.com.
Thanks for your input

Peace

Oops, sorry. I don't know how to do that. I'm a when it comes to that stuff. If someone wants to be a real nice guy and do it for me, that would be awesome. I completely wasn't thinking, I'm tired. The weapon one is on Directtire.com and the Enkei is on thewheelconnection.com.
Thanks so much for who ever has the brains and know to do it. I apoligize for being a

Hey wow, that's strange, I knew the Enkeis soudned familiar, as I too was interested in those at one point ... I like them both with the Enkeis winning me over by a small margin...

Hey anj109, thanks for doing that man. You rock. I knew one of you would know how to do it.
Thanks again man.

Polls are 50/50 now. Enkei probably a little better quality, but Weapons a little more aggressive looking. I don't know.

Most wheels with a lip look smaller, so my vote goes to the Enkei's

I like the Enkei's but the MB's would be MUCH easier to clean i think... Just depends on if that is a factor or not for you.

i also like the Enkei's. i personally like 5 stars, but those look daam nice for dual 5 spokes. too bad your car isn't silver, or black. they'll still look nice on white though.

Their both nice wheels. The Enkie's have a more original design, the second pic is a design that many have, or are very similiar to many others.
MAXRB8 is correct when stating wheels with a lip appear to be smaller then they are.
If you want them to stand out and look like 18's go with pic number 1

I like the first one, the 2nd one is ugly. But may I suggest the ASA AR1 for 4 reasons? Good looks, low price, low weight, and licensed by BBS. It looks like the BBS RGR at 1/3 the price. At $219 ea. these rims are a crazy joke.

Thanks for your very much valued opinions boys. Keep em' comin. It looks like I'll be ordering the Enkei's. They were actually my first choice. But I do thank everyone so much for leaving your opinions and thoughts on the choice at hand. Like I said, keep em' comin.
Thanks

I think the MBs are more fitting for a maxima
The Enkeis are too bling for my taste, they look like they should be on an Escalade or something...

I voted for Enkei's, but now I wish I hadn't. I'd go for the MB afterall. They look aggressive, sharp, and sporty.

Thanks for your votes. The MB Motorsport Weapons got almost no votes, and now I can see why. I want to ask one last time before I take out my credit card. Either the ZR-1's or the Millia Miglia EVO-5's. Everyone knows what those look like, they're awesome! But common. They are also bright silver as opposed to the ZR-1's which are hyperblack. Which would look better with white? Thanks for your time boys for the last time. Your opinions really do have an impact on my decision.
Thanks again
peace

I thought they d/c's Milles? I'd still go with the Enkeis, Mille are played out, but PLEASE let's not get into that ...

Mihgt have opened a stank can of words...I mean worms.

That's what you wanted all along, but you were afraid you get flamed for posting a Poll with the Milles, I see how you are..

Yeah, you got me there, those wheels are just sooooooooo nice looking, but I think maybe the hyperblack would look better, because the Milles are very common amongst the Maxima community.

The Enkie's are real nice but as you stated the Evo 5's are common and silver if you had to get one of the two I thind the Evo's would be better than the ZR-1's just because of the hyperblack color
