how would black/polished rims look on a black CL?

i've never seen rims like these before & i can't decide if they'd look really cool or a lil strange on my car i think black rims can look awesome on a black car (like mine) as long as there's a polished lip or something like this to set it off...

so yea, give me some opinions homies!!

Well those pics are a little old now and the suspension has settled a little lower now (the pics were taken right after the springs were installed). It is a Neuspeed Sport drop (1.75" Front 1.5" Rear drop - but has settled lil lower) which I think makes it look like a more even drop, but I am still on stock shocks cuz Im broke

Yeah, they are 19s but kinda look smaller in the pics due to the lip they have...

Thanks for the compliments guys...

mesmerize - I dont know why but Im not really feeling the wheels you picked out Although they do look better on the photoshop above. There are some other nice choices out there though in a similar color scheme...

Info on Wheelsnext

Just some info on wheels next.....there IS free shipping but you do have to add 40 for mount/balence and 60 for handling. So whatever package you select is 100 more. Not to threadjack just some useful info....i ordered these for my cl a few days ago.

http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=539

hope that helps.

What kind of tires ship with these wheels? Also we need 114.3x4 with 42mm offset, right?

They come with 225/40HR/18 Nankang NS-II, but for 55 dollars more you can get kumo 225/40ZR/18 Ecsta Supra 712 which are in my opinion MUCH better tires..I had them on my GSR and loved them....And you are correct on the lug pattern and offset....
