Whut kind of rims do u guys prefer? Male Or Female? IMO i prefer female because there are no spurs and u cant brake anything if u push the wheel in too hard, i dont prefer males is because there is a high chance of breaking the spurs.

I prefer female style as well. It is far easier on female-style wheels to adjust for axle length.
Just my :2cents:

sometimes i like both depending the the kit im making. Ive had some male that will not go in and some female give me crap also. I guess male would be my overall choice.

Male style rims allow for better brake detail. I'm always a lot more impressed with the brakes on cars that have male connection, female connecting wheels usually have awful brakes to make room for the wheel. And if I would choose to display the car with a wheel removed, well....

i prefer to have the rims that I like for that perticular car fit without modification. but if all the companies were going to standardize the male/female thing to one or the other I'd go with male for basically the same reasons willimo stated :iceslolan

female. just for the purpose if i ever want to take the rims off that particular car the females just twist off, but the males might break.

Female,its much easier to lower the model, especially on Japanese kits.
