I like the looks of the first set but I don't like rims with the extra lug holes, it ruins the look.

I like set #2 better as well. However, why not find out what brand they are so you could see them in person locally? You're about to spend $800 on something you might want to return, which would then be subject to a significant restocking charge...

Yup, wheels and tires section.

Try to find something, between 8" and 9" wide with 35MM offset.

Well personally, I have bought rims online in the past and havent had any problems. Also personally, I like the second link better for a few reasons. Well the first is the chrome finish and the second is the lip on the rim is bigger. What I mean, is that the spokes on the wheel are deeper. I hope that makes sense. I love wheels with the spokes deep in the wheel.

20's look nicer, but if its a daily driver on bad roads those 20's arent going to last long.

I was also thinking the same thing. I'd go all the way with 20's

Here's an old picture of my car. It's no 5th gen but it should give you an idea what chrome looks like on white.

I get the second set of rims (chrome) in 19's, the stock 18's are too small IMO. Good luck with your choice.
