That's really close - a tough decision. Big price difference? I'm giving the nod to the tork's but both are good choices for white 8.

I like the center area of the 5zigen wheels better, and they'd probably be easier to clean (fewer nooks and crannies).

They both look really good. I say just go with the lightest and cheapest.

The Tenzos don't seem like they give enough of a lip for my liking. I would go for the Torks they look more aggressive.
