Help Me Decide What Rims To Get

Right now I have 18" black wheels with a polished lip...

I LOVE black! I cant get enough of it!!! So this is what im thinking...
Either get:
A: Evo wheels and have them powder coated black


B: 2G 17s Black(with or without polished lip)


C: Stock 16s black(with or without polished lip)


D: These Rev Wheels

What do you guys think? Again I LOVE black and I dont think an all black wheel would look like too much.
PS:Thanks for the pics whoever I stole them from

Yah, the "lift kit" will come off :)
That pic is actually when it was FWD, I used the FWD suspension and it sits a tad lower(in the back at least)

im tired of black with the polished lip. But i cringe at all black because it looks like its just...one with the tire....No so clean looking.

I suggest you do the Evo rims black with a very very small polished lip, like 1/4 inch. or less.

I agree, aren't they like 17x8 or something? I'd imagine they're close considering the stock tire size is 235. I vote EVO

Wow, you are growing out of the black w/ polished lip?

How do you plan to polish a lip that does not exist?

I picked the Revs, but if you could buy the Advans RG II's, I would say go for it.
