I personally like the Imagine better, one because I can get it in 19's, and also because I like the polished lip, but I don't like how the middle looks darker than the rest of it.

I'd be going with the Imagines if I was to buy something right now.

id go with the first rims in 19"s like the second post said. Look at the two rims man. The spokes on the first rim go all the way out to the edge and the second one has a (what i consider) a really thick lip. If you like rollin on 18"s or 19"s that actually look more like 16"s or 17"S den get the imagines. The Lip on the second one just makes the rim seem smaller. I've seen plenty of rims on cars and that's what i've noticed. If you had to pick id go with the Enkeis, but personally i dont like either of those rims. And if u dont get those rims please to god dont get the milles.. cuz we all know everyone else has those rims.

I like the enkies better because the konigs look like they are over done and also they look smaller due to the lip

Going show eh? I don't need any more rims, I got 13lbs 17"s. Your car looks sweet with those 2K1 rims, but I suppose if you want a show car they aren't gonna cut it.

i think bicycle spoke type wheels look best on bmws and audis, our maximas look best with 5 or 6 spoke wheels

Hehe, I've got 13 pound 15x7's...

They are 2k2 rims, btw. I'm not going show but I will probably get JIC coilovers or buy Ground Control's again and 19's by next summer and dump it. I like the 17's but they arn't flashy enough for summer driving.

The sizes I listed are the biggest possible, or else I would have listed a 19" size for both. Like I said, I like the lip, it gives the wheel a MUCH more classy look - look at almost ANY hooked up bimmer.

I'm really starting to not like the color change in the Konig wheel though...I'm going to have to find more wheels of this style

The enkeis, but not with your color car. Just my opinion.
