what do you think of these wheels?

still in the market for some wheels for my black MCS and cant decide.. I came across these in ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BRIG-...spagenameZWDVW

how do you think it will look on it? Ive tried searching the "show me your wheels" section and have not been able to find any pics with similar wheels..

If you like black, anthracite, or anthracite with machine lip, the Motegi Traklite 1.0 is similar in design and I think the SSR TYPE C OR TYPE C RS would also be a nice choice.

no on the ebay link it shows 4 lug..
and no i dont think its sold.. they just keep relisting it if its not sold.. also that company is a dealer for those rims so i think they can easily be ordered anytime..
darmog.. the motegi traklite wheels look exactly like the Brig ones.. except that they are much more expensive too..

They do an 8 spoke version of that wheel too. Better looking, IMO. Forged, too.

Nice looking wheel.They look somewhat light, easy to fit a big break kit and most importantly clean
