i would go wit 4 all day ALONG ....but remember if u decides to go black color on whatever rims then get the bigger size like 19s and if u go with bright color like white or light silver then go wit 18s...cuz its all about visual error....if u know wat i mean...

HINT: black things always looks smaller to human eye from distance even if they r the same size....

2/3, or 7, depending on which best matches the color.

meh, the spokes on 3 and 4 look almost identical, so either one.

I see quite a few four lug wheels. I hope they come in five lug, as well.
That said, if i were putting them on my car, I would go with 5 or 8

For my car, I would choose the dark or bronze, so 3, 5 and 8. I think my favorite is no. 3.


Also, if you are getting snow tires for winter, I would suggest 15s or 16s. The tires will be cheaper and you will have more sidewall to work with.

My snow tires are mounted on steelies in the stock 15 inch size.
