Need Help! Wheel Choices

Cant decide between these two types of rims any input would be great. Oh by the way they would be 18x8
Axis Decade left
Privat Netz right I think these might be made by Konig

I'd go for the ones on the right as well. I'm actually getting them in black with the machined lip after Winter.
Oh and they are in fact made by Konig.

The one on the right would be my choice. Nice looking lip and I like the shape of the spokes. Are they expensive ?

ALTA has them from $145 a piece. I'm gonna shop around a bit to see if anyone has them for less though.

+1 to the Privat Netz. Alta says it's about 17+ lbs @ 17x7...for 18s? Good looking & good price and seriously on my next list next year.
Post some photos once you have them.
