Which wheel should I go for?

After looking at some wheels I have come down to 2 choices:

15x7 + 27 Advan Kreuzer xii Bronze
or
15x7 +41 Enkei RPF1 Bronze

The Advan is a classic design for JDM roadwheels, and is very popular on the Vitz in Japan.

EDIT: BTW, if you plan to run 205mm rubber, then the Advan Kreuzer xii is available in 15x7, ET41 which is a better fitment.

I can't find the +41 offset. It's either the +37 or +27, and I doubt the +27 will work, unless I get some camber and fender work done.

in person the Advans looks better than the other two wheels yet worst the photos you posted. if you get bronze they have a polished interior which looks really nice. Those Enkeis are a dime a dozen on everything from EVOs to S2Ks.

Ain't that the truth! They look pretty like vip cheese in the photo, but look hella dope in person. I tested one in the front with out a tire, and it looked like it needed another degree of negative camber. The wheels are +27 offset, so there will be no space for even a flea to fit through. I have a few more days to decide. I'm gonna test fit Kreuzer with a tire, and from there I can tell if I will get them or the Enkei's.

After looking at both wheels, I decided to go for the Kreuzers. I just couldn't see myself getting some small-looking wheels, when all I wanted to do was get something bigger than what I have.
They weigh 12 pounds, and are probably the nicest looking wheels I have had on my car(Yes, I have had many). Not only do they look like 16's, but the attention to detail on these wheels is unbelievable. There's a neon-chrome lip on the inside, while the spokes of the wheel go all the way to the edge of the lip.
They come in white,gunmetal,silver and bronze. They also come in different offsets, from +27 to +41. So, if you want to get some of these, come on down to JLB. If you can't, then go to:http://www.jlbmotorsports.com/store/specials.php
