Opinion and photoshop help needed I'm trying to decide between 2 wheels, the ADR M-Classic and the Stern ST-7 (which is pretty much the same as the ADR M-Sport). Both in chrome as I thought that would look best on red.
The M-Classics are 18x8.5, with 40mm offset and I can get them for $549 plus shipping. The ST-7s are staggered, 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with 38mm offset and I can get them for $861 plus shipping.
Plusses for the M-Classics are that they are a lot cheaper and are the same size, so I can rotate tires. Minuses are that they are the same size and I can't get the staggered look. I also don't know what they will look like, where I've seen M-Sports on F-bodies before so I have an idea what the ST-7 will look like.
Plusses for the ST-7 is that I can get the staggered look and I really like the way they look on the F-bodies I've seen. Minuses are that they're over $300 more expensive and since they're staggered, rotating the tires is impossible.
So, what do you guys think? Wheels are below. If someone could photoshop the wheels onto the car pictured so I could get an idea what the wheels would look like on the car, I'd appreciate it (Note: the car isn't mine, I used the pic b/c the wheels on the pictured car are 18s).

Thanks in advance guys!

Black chrome is dead sexy. IMO regular black paint just makes the wheel fade out. You have to adjust your focus too much to make out the design. Black chrome responds to light so it brings the wheel's design back out of the "woodwork."
