Default what 17" wheels for a series 2????

had intended on putting soft spoke rs 7 spokes on my series 2 but they seems to be everywhere at the moment, yeah they look really nice but maybe i should put something different on it?? what do you think??

Diamond Cut RS 7s or maybe ST170 multis, although you cant really beat the soft spokes

Rondells are like chocolate apparently! lol But Azev's is a wicked idea!

Not telling you my idea for wheels, never seen an RST on them!
