Default Poll: Which one of these wheels will look best on my black '96 2.8?

I'm torn between the 18x8.5 BBS RX II or the 17x8 Kinesis K5.

Here are the pics:

I can get them both for almost the same price, but which is the better choice? The 17's will be lighter and probably give me better performance, but the 18's are gorgeous.

For the money, I'd go with the K5. 17 is a good all-around size.
