I'm trying to pick my new rims and I'm down to two PRIMARY options. A few secondaries but for now these are my primaries. I want to know what you guys thing. They'll be going on a Copper Red Mica Hatch w/ 35%/20% tinting (generally a dark look all around). Let me know what you guys think:

Oh, and if you have any opinions on the tire manufactures themselves, I'd like to hear them.

Personally, I like the design of the bottom ones better but the hyper black and design of the top ones would go better with your car, I think~(if that is hyper black hard to tell on my monitor).

As for tires, I'm biased towards Michelin, so no comment! ;-)

Ace alloys: http://www.acealloywheel.com/wheel-model-detail_13951.html Rims come in Hyperblack, metallic silver, and chrome

Enkei FD-05: http://www.fd05.com/ Rims come in Shiny black machined, matte black, and gunmetal machined.

I linked the Hyperblack Ace and the gunmetal machined Enkei

The second rims are overdone. See them almost everywhere and come stock on some Hyundai's. I'd go with the Enkeis personally.

New Hyundais have like a 14 or 15" version. Ikon makes a set, Ace makes a set, Fast, etc. not super original. I like the new Enkeis though!

I agree, I seen so many of these. maybe I should look into new rims, maybe 18" this time..but before I do that, I think I will lower the car

Good plan a drop makes a huge diffference to the ride both lookwise and driving experience i say go for it :)

oh man! Now you got me looking at Ikon rims. I do really like the Enkei and it's still a top pick just they are on the pricey side.

I do like the look of the Ikon Vision, Mrt, and Deviant.

Enkei's all the way.

Like everyone else mentioned I've seen to many other cars sporting those particular ACE alloys.

Really? That sucks bigtime, 'thems nice looking rims'.But then you could look at it this way also; those rims I doubt come in HyperBlack very often and might suit a certain vehicle design better another, in a sense making them look different to ones eye!......just a thought!, stock on hyundai's~ that really sucks!:chuckle

Are those 17 or 18s, I wonder? They look nice!

They're 17s, the IKON Zen (which is what's on that hatch) only come in 14", 15", and 17".
