Opinions for my Cooper

Deciding on wheels, think I've narrowed it down to these 2. Just gauging public opinion now to help make my decision.

Why would you care what the "public" thinks?

They're your wheels, get the ones you like!

FWIW, I like the ones in your sig pic better.....

because I like them both, so I need a little persuasion one way or the other. Ask the audience, Who wants to be a millionaire 'esque. Oh and the ones in my sig are a little exaggerated, they're only 16".

Buy 2 for one side of your MINI & the other 2 for the other side. That way you have both.

To be truthful black wheels do not do it for me, but I like the ones in the top picture better.

Happy motoring...

I guess the first one in my original post is pretty similar, just can't get it in polished.

I like the one with the red stripe, but since that is what I just ordered, I guess I have a little bias....

I don't really care for solid black wheels either. Given a choice between the two that you picked, I would pick the top. How about a hybrid wheel, part silver, part black?
