Depends on your budget... Z06 wheels, and TTII wheels have been played out for years. Still a good look for the money though.

It's all in what you can afford. Give me a rough price range...

Niche Venice or HP Racing EVO's are "budget" wheels that are still somewhat different. If you have $$$$$$ then you can look at anything from CCW, HRE etc...

Thats about the only way your gonna get a black chrome combo,without spending a buttload of money.All the wheels you see are mainly black and polished or machined.I will post up a pic of my wheels that I had they have a high polish

if you were to get black wheels you should get the chrome lip and that will top it off

Here is mine with my old set of stock 2k2 ws6 wheels painted black. They look OK! I'm just tired of the hole red and black wheels thing. So now I have chrome wheels. Hope these can help you!
