Default Wheels

i was trying to get some opinions on wheels. are Velox wheels any good, also, how much do they weigh?
and can i get some opinions on wheels, everyone please give thier opinions on these:
Velox VX-8

Tenzo Mean-6(gun metal)


or the Rota Sub-zero(im sure everyone knows what they look like.

These are for a red 5th gen with CF hood, smoked tails, corners, headlights.

those wheels are recessive.....the spokes dont meet at the edge of the wheel, they bend into the depth of the wheel. I have rims similar like those..they look tight, the only problem is they look realllly small because of the spokes. I have 17"s and they look like 15"s. just a caution.

Both wheels are pretty decent for what you're paying for. Personally, I like wheels with a polished lip. In terms of weight, I think that they both weigh in at about 21lbs. for both wheels in 17's.

I think that there is a set on ebay right now for them (black w/ polished lip)... Guy is passing it off as JDM though.
