Default I need your wheel opinion prowess

It's been a while since i've last posted but I need some legit opinions on what wheels to pick up. I'm looking to get some 15s but if the price is right, I may go 16. But for now, only 15s. Anyways, here are the choices and specs...

Konig Bump in Matte Black with Red Undercut Lip (15x6.5 +40 - 15.1lbs)


Konig Bump in Silver with Blue Undercut Lip (15x6.5 +40 - 15.1lbs)


Konig Helium in Magnesium Blue (15x6.5 +40 - 11.5lbs)


XXR 501 in Gunmetal with 2.5 inch Lip (15x8 +15 - 15.5lbs)


Konig Retrack in Graphite with 3 inch Machined Lip (15x7.5 +32 - 14.1lbs)


Konig Zero in Black with Red Line Lip (15x16.5 +40 - 15.1lbs)

Konig Retrack in Graphite or the 501s would be a nice fit
the 501s in 16x8 +15 aren't but a few $ more than the 15.

all the ones with 6.5 and a 40 offset wouldn't look right.

XXR, or what ever they are called now, are way played out. STAY AWAY!

Myself, I would go with the Helium, only because I had a set in 19" on mine at first and they are super light wheels. Won't slow your take-off like a heavier wheel. After that I would say the Retrack, can't go wrong with some nice lips, look at Angelina.
