Default Wheel Suggestions for Me

I am looking for some advice on wheels for my orange GT. It is the car in my avatar. Sorry I do not have any better pictures right now, as I don't have access to a digital camera right now, but the orange is the regular tangerine orange and my stripes are dark grey. When I say dark, I mean almost black, but not quite. That is why I am unsure on what to get. I have the chromes on there in the picture, but they were 20s that came with the car when I bought it. I put them on my fiance's car and am back to my stockers for now. I like the look of darker rims but I just don't think black rims would look right since the stripes aren't exactly black. The chromes looked awesome and are obvisouly the safe bet, but just looking for some opinions from you guys.

I found these http://groupawheels.com/images/NEW--...ium-9.5-(3.jpg. These are like the only dark grey ones I have found. The regular Bullitt rims are just too light.

Scott

You just like regular silverish rims? You got some examples of what you mean?

I do like those beyond rims too. The only thing that I do not like is that they only make the 17x8s. I would like to have 17x9 so that I could fit a wider tire on it, but I will definitely have to keep those in mind.

You could get some of the dark gray center Boyd Smoothie IIs. Those are slick imo.

On your color I just think that the polished would look better.And they are not Silverish.

In the mm&ff mag march issue they have the Konig beyonds on the cover car and in the article they say the wheels are 18x9.5 if you want to go with 18s

Yeah, I saw the 18x9.5 on the konig website. I was just trying to stay with 17s, but I really do like that style.
