Question Help me pick my wheels!

I am going to be getting new wheels for my car. All these wheels are in the $200.00. range! I just don't know, Black or Silver finish? or even style? or maybe you have a better choice! Keep in mind, I want to stay in this price range. I was kind of leaning towards a black finish w/polished lip! I'm also still looking at all the Ronal's as another option to staying close to stock!!!
Curret stock BMW wheels:

So, 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) or 6)..............?
thanks, johnnybayonne

1)

2)

3)

4)

5)

6)

Get number one they would look amazing because they would match the color of your car. Have you looked at AC Schnitzer or Alpina rims, they would also look good. If you are going to get rims, get black with a chrome lip.

Out of those choices 1, then 4, but that is what I think. It is YOUR car johnny. I dont recall seeing those choices you posted on werkz.

# 1 BY FAR the best!! you don't even know how evil your black car will look w/ black rims, and the polished silver lip. Are those 18's? if you get 18's, you will need some super low profile tires to maintain the same overall diameter as stock. I would reccommend 17's. 17's look the best, are cheaper than 18's, and M3's use 17's. (and i have 17's)

allow me to suggest these wheels:
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...120&vid=006952

Also let me suggest these:
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand

both wheels are much cheaper than $200 a pop, and look awesome.

I like 1, otherwise I would go for a nice alloy wheel, i don't like chrome and I don't always think black on black go that well, do a white wheel on the black and if its right it will look badass, this is my buddies focus:

The BBS RGRs are nice, you can probably get the BBS RX for a little less money and get the same effect for a wheel that is slightly heavier. I know because thats what I have, and i think that was the motivation when mine were purchased. BBS makes a great product.
