I'm trying to decide between 3 wheels...which do you think would look better on a black FC?

5Zigen Copse 17" in Hyperblack



Tenzo Passion5 17" in gunmetal with mirror lip



Konig Imagine 17" in Opal

Depends on what color the car is. The Konigs would look awesome on a black FC. The Tenzo's would look really good on a red FC IMO... So the Konigs get my vote.

Std. BBS mesh

I still think the stock BBS mesh wheels on my Dad's 88 vert were the best looking wheel on any FC. They just looked 'right' on the car.

i dont like a lot of wheels out there, but you got it narrowed down. i like them all. if you want to be safe the last one will definitly look good on an fc. i really like the look of the bbs in 16" with a lot of offset(?) (when the rim sticks out from the wheel)
