I just went with what the tirerack program said would work. The cheap rims are gravity cast as opposed to vacuum cast or forged. Gravity casting makes weaker rims pound for pound due to air bubbles so they make them heavier to increase strength. Since I'm already compromising performance with winter tires, a few pounds makes no difference to me. I will say they feel a good bit heavier than the forged stock sport rims. I like the last pic you posted. Nice clean look to them.
Agree with nogood. Looks good on blue too. They have a nice rugged look that compliments the aggressive snow treads.
