Default Best Color Wheel for HUGGER Orange--Opinions pleas

What does everyone think is the best color wheel for a Hugger Orange Z? Currently has chrome 17" Firehawk wheels that I want to get rid of. Im trying to find some all black 18" c5 z06 wheels. But do you think chrome, black with machine lip, or all black would look better?

Chrome polished or silver, black wheels look like DOG S**T on any car,IMO.

Chrome would look good, but I think with the "RIGHT" wheel, black would look killer on there. Plus, it would color match more with the roof and side mirrors.

I too would like to see some pictures... My car has the black stripes, and zero chrome anywhere.... so I would think black wheels would look good, but realize it takes the right wheel to make that work.

Anyone got pictures of Hugger Orange cars (F body or not) with a varity of wheels?

All black with a color matched pinstripe would be the ticket.
