I debated this ad nauseum with myself and I'm really hoping that when I finally see the car I decide I made the right choice.

My initial thoughts were:
825's will pop more against the blue
825's are a little less busy and maybe a bit more classy?
826's look kind of dark and busy

It's really difficult since most of us can't really see them in person before deciding.

My thoughts since then and as my car will be in Baltimore tomorrow:
825 - I hope they aren't too bright. I don't want it to look like I have chrome wheels which they give as an option on Corvettes because the old people (like my parents) pick them.
--I'm hoping the black inner parts tone them down some.
826 - seems a little darker, but in some pics light up some in the right light
826 - maybe look a little more sporty?

It's also hard to take into account how the 3D aspect of the wheels is in person as it really doesn't seem to come across in pictures.

I guess I'll know for sure in a month. I'm also hoping I like the color as much as in pictures.
