Default Would black wheels w/polished lip look good on my car?

I'm kind of tired of the G2 wheels I have on the car right now. They just don't do anything for me anymore. I'm leaning towards a wheel with a black center and polished lip. I think that would look mean on my car. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> I have been thinking about getting the wheels from the 35th Collectors Edition Trans Am since the first day I saw them . I know you guys are going to say, "Get whatever makes you happy", but i'd like some opinions first. I can just imagine these wheels on with the graphite color. I'm also thinking about some Fikse FM5s with black center and polished lip, but it would be a while before I can afford those wheels. If you guys can think of some other wheels that would look cool, feel free to share. Pics of my car are in the sig. Thanks <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

before the C/E T/A came out I was gonna do Performance Wheel Outlet Cobra R's and have them powder coated black and polish the lip. I liked how the wheels looked on the GMHTP car.

I haven't seen a color yet that black wheels didn't look good on. Red, Black, Silver, Pewter, White, Yellow, Green... you name it I've seen it. The only color I'd be weary about is Navy Blue Metallic... I saw pics of a Z on here with black GS wheels but the car looked black in all the pics and you couldn't get a good idea of it. Here's a couple pics of my Silver WS6 with Black/Polished ROH ZS wheels.

Thanks, guys. I think i'll go with the 35th CE TA wheels. I found them pretty cheap on the net. if I don't like them I can always sell them. If I do like them, my old wheels might be up for sale. Oh, and MONGOOS, your car looks sweet, but it would even sweeter lowered. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
