Advice on New Wheels

I have Z06 replicas on my car and I am thinking of switching to a new set. I have a few in mind. I currently like the Black wheel Chrome lip look that my car has now but thinking of going all black or chrome or staying with the same set up.. Here are a few options I am looking at.

The Matte Black or Black and chrome

Any thoughts here is a pic of my car now.

I like the all chrome look best, but IMO the next best for your car of those you mentioned would be the black centers with the chrome lip.

IMO - All black! Black wheels will contrast nicely with the stunning white, and render your car even more stunning-er-er.

I agree just have to find out either gloss or matte or flat black. I really like the Cray Manta wheels
