RIMS for my 06 LR G: opinions, NOT JUDGEMENTS!!!

I am on a very limited budget, but i have found some rims that suit my fancy until i get enough $ to buy some serious rims:

these would have red inserts instead of chrome ones(they are interchangeable with many colors, kinda cool)

these will have the lip i like:

here are some wicked small spokes, i like this look!!!:

last chance, MAYBE these, i dont really LOVE them though:

Once again, don't make fun cause I'm on a budget of about 1000-1200 bucks and these are what i can afford. Any recommendations for 5 spokes like these in my price range are much appreciated, but NO JUDGING, just lemme know your opinions on which one would look the best on LR.

I would go with the last choice, but if it was me I would save the money you have and wait till you get enough for a nicer set.

Agree totally but the last ones really don't look too bad at all. First ones are horrific.

I personally haven't see anyone do it. Check out this site for decent deals. Save up a couple hundred more bucks and you can get some thruxtons. Nothing high end but they do look nice and I'd take them over Konigs if I wasn't looking to save some money.

Sorry, but I hate them all.

If you're tight on money, then why waste the little money that you have now? Why not just keep saving up for what you ultimately want? It won't be easy to sell any of these wheels when the time comes, at least not on here. And you won't get much of your money back.

+100000!!!!!111!!!!one!!1one

Save up for a nicer set...if you already have 1-1.5k, just keep saving and you can get decent rims in the 2k-2.5k range...or you can try to find a used set

Isn't someone selling Volk Progressives for like 1,600 in the marketplace??

Keep saving for a nicer set that you want. You will never be happy settling for make-do rims and it's a false economy to do so. It will take you that much longer to get what you want.

Keep an eye on the used rims for sale in the Marketplace. You can find some good deals on nice, used rims.
