CHROME or SILVER

My TL is WDP/Parchment so i was thinking that any gunmetal rims would look way off...so i need your opinion...what would look better on my car? Chrome or Silver or Even Polished rims? I was thinking of going 18s with an inch drop all around or even some 19s. I'm not really a fan of mesh wheels because they are a B*Tch to clean....would also appreciate it if you guys can suggest some wheels...i'm already looking at the zenetti's...am posting pics so i hope it works ...thanks in advance....


heres the link...the pics were right-click protected

http://www.car-rims.com/zenetti_wheels.asp


the FIVE looks really cool, the Deuce would also look good but it's a mesh design...they don't have the mystic on their site...they have it on the official site www.zenetti.com....

Opinions would be greatly appreciated....

gunmetal will be a great contrast while not being too dark (like a black powdercoat)...I think chromes would look kinda dumb (although I was surprised that they look nice on NBPs).

i know we have the same car but my interior is parchment...thats why i'm staying away from gunmetal. i considered getting the OEM 18s but i just couldn't picture it...

It has a similar feel to the ones rynpamn21 posted

I love white pearl with chrome. My neighbor used to have a Mazda Millenia in white with chrome spoke wheels. It was drop-dead gorgeous.

Go chrome!

mine is wdp with parchment. I have stock size alessio f1's in gunmetal and they look better than any of those pics. and they arent too dark. everyone who has seen my car in person says the rims are perfect. still I may get ikeda z5's because they look great.
