Need Help Deciding Between 18" Winter Rims for 2SS/RS

Guys,

I can't decide which of these to pick for the winter tires, Blizzak LM-25's that I am about to purchase. From what I gather, any of the 3 should just fit over the Brembos. Trying to make a purchase this morning.

Option #1

Option #2

Option #3

Thanks,

Y2J

I just installed the MODA (option 3) on my SS, with Firestone tires. Work great so far, but no snow yet, so we'll see. They are highly rated tires and the wheels fit with no issues at all. They do require a centering ring in the outer end of the hub inside the wheel, and come with the part. The retainer snap ring, though, is really low-rent and pops off too easily. It requires a "tweak" to fit properly.

I went with the MSW, Option #2 and the Blizzak LM-25's. I'll post some pics when I get them installed.

This is for the wheels, tires, tpms sensors mounted and balanced as well as the centering rings and 20 lug nuts.
