pics of my near-future car - rims and tint

I know I'm not the best photoshoper but I tried. How do you guys think my car would look with these rims (Konig Blatant - Carbon) and tinted windows.

I think they look pretty MEAN, so I'll probably go with them. If I don't like the way they look once on my car then I'll just sell them and go with something else.

I like the Blatants, but black? Makes the car look like a wanna-be Knight Rider?! It would look a lot better in silver.

Thanks, I use Meguiar's products. They make a 3 step combo, which includes wash, polish and wax. Works very well.

Personally, I wouldn't buy Konig. From what I hear, its a lower end product.

Really, I haven't heard anything bad about them. Actually I've seen them on several show cars in the mags. (sportcompactcar or super street).

What bad things have you heard about them?

I almost bought a set of Konigs for my CL. I like them, but they were out of my budget.

Here's the Verdicts on my Uncle's (show) Jetta (which his wife wrecked this past week)!

I have Konigs. Yeah I BROKE one (pothole). IMO, they look a hell of a lot better than some.

I'm reading a lot of mixed reviews about Konig wheels. Some people saying they love them and others saying their crap and they'll bend. This is getting me thinking whether I actually want to buy these rims. What else does everyone suggest that look similar to teh blatants?

I had a set of Konigs. I just got rid of them. They bend like tinfoil. The clearcoat also peeled off of them in a year. Dont waste your money. Spend a few hundred more and get some RH evos.

I originally was looking at the RH Evo S7 and CP8. Does anyone have these? Any comments about these two rims? I still would consider them.
