Getting some new rims soon and wondering which to get.
Like I said in the title Im getting some new rims and its between Exel MAJ 17x7 (1st picture) or Exel DL-46 18x7.5 (2nd picture)

With either set of rims I plan on getting some Hankook H405 in their respective sizes for the rim. The reason I am getting these tires is because I have a set on my stock rims now and they have done pretty well.

So I was just wondering what you guys thought?

Re: Getting some new rims soon and wondering which to get.
I like the first one personally, but from past threads like this, am going to guess most people would choose the 5-spoke design. (maybe that's why I like the other better )

Too busy; fake rivets FTL. Find something cleaner.

Re: Getting some new rims soon and wondering which to get.
i put a set of the second ones on my girlfriends solara and they actually look really nice. Probably doesnt say much for how they would look on a cougar but oh well. They were supposed to go on her 3G eclipse but that got totalled before the end of winter
