I'm looking into getting 18's for my black SVT(though it might be a little while). I'm thinking about powdercoating them black or gunmetal, and leaving the lip silver, and I just wanted people's opinions on what rim they think would look best that way. There is one choice that is gunmetal already, and nothing would be changed on it. Thanks for the help in advance.

Our choices:

1. http://www.whalentire.com/cardetail.cfm?vehiclenumber=43

2. http://www.whalentire.com/wheeldetail.cfm?wheelnumber=RSL117589H42S&size=18

3. http://www.whalentire.com/wheeldetail.cfm?wheelnumber=RSL97589H40A&size=18

4. http://www.superbuytires.com/wheels_by_brand.html?other_brand=Nitto&stage=2&brand=Velox&model=VX8&id=10590&sugg_tire=225%2F40x18&orig_sugg=225%2F40x18&type_search=brand&x=18&y=4

I like #2, but I'm a sucker for 5 spokes.
