You're usually going to get 'Chrome' as your biggest result in a poll of what kind of rims to get. A lot of people do not like black rims, I personally am not crazy about black rims... I'm very particular in my choice, it has to be something out of the ordinary and not like the over-done Torq-Thrust's or black ZR1's. I absolutely love the black wheels on my car and I just cannot do anything with chrome again.
My previous set of rims had a chrome lip on them, and I couldn't stand how I would have to wipe the lip clean of brake dust and dirt after every time I drove it. Rain water will also pool up some on the lips of your rims, and it can leave an ugly stain that will bother the **** out of you until you can get some elbow grease on it.
I voted for black with the machined face...

I have had pretty good luck running Hankook V12 Ventus tires on my car. I've had them for over two years and it looks like I might be able to get another year out of them. I don't drive a whole lot, but I racked up 16k miles since I owned the car, I had the tires put on when i bought the car. The SHITTY roads here in PA are notorious for tearing up a lot of tires, but these have taken every dip, bump and hole in the road they have come across. The sidewalls are pretty firm and they are decently quiet.
P.S- They are also pretty wallet friendly as well!!!

I had these c6 z06 wheels (currently for sale) on my 2000 ws6, It looked good to me, but with mine being lowered I like the stock wheels also (see sig for current pic). Front are 18's and rear are 19's.

Buy these, then get 2 18x10.5 from oe wheels. You can buy single wheels on their site.

Out of your 3 choices, the last pic. But, I'd rather get them in black or chrome. I dont like the C6 Z06 with a lip.
..so many choices!!! I'm thinking about selling my rpm 505 wheels to get maybe DD C5 in chrome or C6 ZR1 in gun metal...Right my rpm are plasti dipped but I miss the polished/chrome look.
