Default Thinking about new rims..

Hey everyone, I might be looking in to a new set of rims for the Monte. I want to keep the same rim size because I just got a new set of tires this summer.
I found 2 so far that I like, what do you guys think? I'm up for any suggestions, I won't be doing this until Christmas when I actually get the money to do this :P

Is stock size 16?

If so, neither. They will look way too small lol

I say you rock the stockers for a while, then go for a different rim. Rims in 16s really don't look right.

I like the T10, but yeah, wait, then get at least a 17 - then you can keep your stockers for Winter.

The T10's but I would wait as others have said. I'd get them in a 17 or 18.
