white looks phat on a black car. i'm not a big fan of ADR. and looks, eh way too damn many people have them(racing harts). but ya who cares about my opinion, its your car so if you like the rims, get it.

ok....
ADR -->
Vici Z5 --> never heard of that brand
Velox VX8 --> good choice and again never heard of that brand
giovanna mito --> dont get chrome, too heavy, unless of course you are going for LOOKS
Niche 5F16 --> no chrome unless if they have in silver or gunmetal, otherwise NO

3 out of 5 looks just like Konig Verdict, y dont u just get Konig Verdict since they have good reputation

and i think gunmetal or silver will look the best on your black coupe

Good Luck

i see you added more...
vici - ugly
velox - looks nice
giovanna - i've seen better giovanna's
niche - i've seen better niche

but ya i think chrome looks best on a black car. then white. especially rims with a polished lip(looks phat spinning). if you want chrome also might want to look into neepers

velox in gunmetal. i usually dont like gunmetal rims but if they have a polished lip like those, those look tyte... when they're spinnin you see black(rims) on black(car) with that blinging circle(polished lip)

The Konig and Velox choices are better than the ADR. But I absolutely love the deep dish look for rims. So I would personally go with the Velox VX8s, they're awesome looking.

the velox are nice. dont like the rest
deep dish- where the spokes are deeper inside wheel bin, giving this "deep dish look". You understand?

Velox in GUNMETAL!!! Dark on Dark looks so good, I have some Tenzo's in 17". I wish I would have gone with the 18's though. Check them out in my profile...
