Baby wants new shoes

I need opinions in these wheels.

I have looking to replace the OEM Chrome wheels on my WDP. I think I have it down to these. At first I was not a big fan of black rims but these may look classy with the chrome lip on a WDP. Would these fit? I have a 1 inch drop. What size tire would be good for these? Has anybody have experience with these? Any other suggestions on wheel choice? I'm looking for a black with chrome or polished lip. If somebody can photoshop these on a WDP I would be very thankful.

These are my first choice. RPM R505 18x8 or 19x8 38 offset

Second Choice Verde Kaos 18x8 38 offset

Third Choice AZA 10 18x8.5 35 offset

And KING OF PAIN.. you need to go with the biggest. The first ones also. They also got the cleanet look to them IMO.

Just remember due to our car off=set the LIP will never be that large. Unless you want your wheel to stick out like 4 inches.

Thanks for the comments KidTL. I had the niche venice on my list, one of my favorite star design rims.

I would like to go with the 19. It would look good with the 1 inch drop. I just worry about ride quality. I understand the bigger the wheels the harsher the ride. I understand the lip will not be as pictured. I will have to call them and ask them about the lip

King of Pain - Not a fan of Black rims but I would say the First Choice... I think those could look pretty good.. they would have a nice contrast with the WDP... also, 19s all the way

At first I was not a big fan of black rims. But seeing some WDP as well as other cars on black rims I took a second look. I'm thinking a glossy black mesh combined with a chrome lip will go with the glossy white pearl color of my TL. Classy but not too much bling bling.

I want 19s. Just worried about ride qaulity and rubbing/scraping. I just ordered the A-Spec body kit today. I really like the look of Toyangel's TL and looking to do a WDP version.
