Which wheels should I go with?

It's gonna be awhile before I will get new wheels/tires, but I'm looking so when I'm ready, I can just order them. Here's the choices I have made...

MB Wheels "Old School" gunmetal 17x8 / 0-offset front/rear $141 ea.


OR

REV Wheels "Classic" 17x8 / 0-offset fronts - $139 ea.


REV Wheels "Classic" gunmetal 17x9 / 0-offset rears - $139 ea.


So far these are my prime choices.

They are both nice but I'd say the first one the second one looks like ar torque thrust which are kind of played out.
