need ideas/opinions on new rims

alright finally time to get a new set of rims for the coupe. i have a 2007 DG coupe blacked out lights front/back and black grille. definately going black on the rims heres the choices i have in mind right now...any opinions on how they would look or ideas of any others that would look good would be greatly appreciated!

-Konig- runaway shadow


-TSW- Nurburgring.

or simply going with the stock 18" 10 spokes and getting them powder coated black. any other suggestions?

Tws are always cool. You should look more into a staggered set though.

IMHO I think you should save & buy something forged that you really like.

Black wheels are played out IMO

What colour is your car?

The Nurburgrings are great wheels. But I would get them in the machined face instead of black.

Since we can't convince you not to do the black thing with DG have your OE wheels P/Cd since the wheels you posted aren't close to there quality.

its diamond graphite. everything else, lights front/back, 35% tint, and painted black brakes so thinking solid black rims would complete the DG/black theme going on?

I stand by my original assessment that it is way too much black. Minor black accents, in my opinion are great, but EVERYTHING black including headlights, tails, wheels, etc., is just way too much.

I guess I'm old fashioned in the sense that I love matted silver wheels.
