Any color on black looks awesome..

but I guess first you have to decide if you want Spoke wheels or Mesh wheels..

I like both, but I'm starting to lean towards to the mesh side lately.. I won't be racing or anything like that.. I just want looks on the car to be better..

To me, something about a 2 or 3 piece wheel with a black or anthracite center and polished outer lip on a black car looks totally sweet. Kinda stealthy without looking overly Darth Vader-ish.

Stealth with a hint of style.

I personally like the stealth look also as far as colour goes...something like gunmetal or black-chrome (like what's on the M5).

This is a luxury car.... Mesh rims looks best. Color of rims should atleast go hand in hand with the color of your car to keep the car looks clean. You do want people to look at the over all of your car and not just the rims. Again, this is just my oipion.

OH, the Ronal Teddy Bears...anyone else remember when Tanner got those (at least, in his Sig)?!! Rory, I got to say, ever since I first say those Trafficstars, they've been one of my favorites. The BR5's are also VERY nice...check out some Dronell's as well, they've got some pretty hot wheels as well. Since your car is black, I'd go with CHROME, or maybe some REALLY shiny machine-finished wheels....but you still just can't beat black on chrome. And go 19's if you can...they just seem to fit the car so nicely!! Good luck man and happy hunting!!

Rims

I would think some black rims 18" still looks nice, but of course 19" look better. (the glossy black) with a chrome lip, somewhat deep dish would look nice. Thats what I plan on putting on mine.

CAR- 03 TL TYPE S, BLACK ON BLACK
