Not that im realy a fan of either , but out of the both the incubus rims look ok , those other rims look totally horrid imo . Then again though / im not really a fan of any 20 inch rims / too much rim / not enough tyre wall / at 20" with real low profile tyres they almost start to look like bicycle wheels from side on imo .

Incubus are the better looking ones, but I don't think any of them really suit the car.

Not to mention what they'll do to the ride- it will be like driving on bricks.

If your car was black or silver I would have said yes. But because it is blue I reckon you could find a better choice.

As has been said they dont really go with the blue, but for me i think the first thing that stands out is that the car isnt low enough for the wheels, and if your going to lower it once wheels are on then i think it may look ok, but in my opinion i think the rims both look to busy and loud for the car and they are taking your eyes off of the car because they stand out and dont mix in with the flow, Its like wearing all black clothes and then putting on a brand new pair of white shoes in my opinion.

good rims but not for the colour car. they would look good on lighter paint jobs.. LIKE WHITE

your car would suit a nice silver wheel..even chrome maybe..
