We chose crown spokes. After much debating and going round and round with the husband re: wheels, I finally decided he was right. The crown spokes seem chunky, just like my new lilttle car. Poor thing has a little meat on her so the crown spokes seemed fitting. Also the name "crown spokes" seemed a bit royal and after all, Scarlett IS a princess!

I do, but I am thinking about buying some aftermarket 17s and just using the bridge spokes in winter.

I have bridge spokes, and I get compliments on how nice the wheels look with the car, very balanced imho.

I have bridge spokes. They are pretty cool. I might get some new wheels that are lighter and use better tires for summer though.
