    I will be choosing between the enkei t-fork and fd-05. I like the machined gunmetal look as I think it will go well with my silver prius. I will also have it lowered.

    I like 5 spoke wheels. IMO gives the best illusion when in motion.

    I prefer the look of the t-fork but wish the center area wasn't as busy with so many predrilled holes.

    T-fort in 18", because the FD-05 can't stand up to the factory 17" five spokes.

    Did you check out Gram lites or oz wheels. I have had both and really liked them. Fdo5 of the two you displayed.

    I am open to suggestions! I do like the gunmetal machined though...and I do not want to spend more than 200 a wheel.

    Yeah, gramlites seem expensive no?

    the oz wheels i was looking at were more expensive, but they weighed slightly less...which is nice.

    I'm tellin' ya folks, Insight is not a bad looking car at all. IF it had Prius size, drivetrain and power, I know peoples would be hittin' it like rabbits. That's a big IF though. C'mon Honda.

    and the batteries didn't crap out... Honda has demonstrated that it can't do hybrids.

    Few things to say. I wouldn't want either one on my Prius, but between the two, voted for fd.

    I like the OEM 17's quite a bit, but I tend to like something styled more like this because they have an OEM look -

    Would be easier if they just gave a wheel option for the III and IV, like with navigation but not with sunroof because of the weight restriction.
