Tenzo wheel opinions welcomed. . .

Hey guys, wanted to get your opinion, as i am pretty torn between these color options for a set of 19" Tenzo Type M rims. . .

PRetty much, below is the ride. . .2005 OB 6MT sedan. . .with the Akebono BBk kit in red. . .want to go for a "sinister" look (similar to the Lexus ISF OEM wheels or the Audi RS4 wheels that come in their dark grey). . i've painted my set of 18" oem rims black, and it looked great, but they won't clear my Akebono's, so they are no longer on my car. . .black was great, but a litttle bit too dark, so, i'm looking at the titanium, charcoal grey, and machined black color choices. . .i'm actually steering toward machined black. . .its almost like a dark hyper black finish, but more sinister and darker looking. . .anyways, any opinions are welcome! what sucks is i have not actually seen these wheels in person, so can't quite get a good feel on how they'll actually look. . .



Charcoal grey


Machined BLack


Titanium

i would say Charcoal grey but its only my opinion. the machined black picture is a little missleading, they machined part is actually much brighter then it appears in the pick.

I wouldn't mind it being bright, but yea, it could give a "chrome" effect, whcih may be too bright.
