WHAT SHOULD I GET (need opinions)???

I have a EBP coupe with the Tsunami body kit, Z3 fenders and M3 mirrors. It's such a smooth look that i don't wanna kill it with gaudy rims. I was thinking of Subzeros in black w/a polished lip or Motegi MR7s in gunmetal or chrome. I used to have chrome Zenneti Matrix's in 18" and they looked tight. Color isn't a real concers as is the style of rims. nothing overly aggressive but eye catching.

Any Ideas???

a Photoshop would be helpful...

I'd go with 6 spokes and chrome!! That is if you really want eye catching. 6 spokes are simple, but look very clean!!

OK, i decided on 18 nch Motegi MR7s, but now i need a color: Silver or Gunmetal??? I'm gonna do black tints, CF hood, black headlights, and Silver Graphics. The color scheme is kinda torn between black and silver. I am thinking about the Gunmetal heavly but on't want it to clash with the slver graphics... but i like silver because it stands out... WHAT THE HELL SHOULD I DO???

Go with gunmetal. The gunmetal color on the MR7's is not that dark at all...it's actually sort of a darker silver. I don't think it would clash. Or maybe get a graphic with both a light and darker shade of silver?
