I'm a major fan of 5 spoke rims

I say get your current rims powder coated matte black - or get some matte black Roush rims - but thats just me.

Of those rims you showed, I'd say the first ones tho

If the first choice are the same XXR company I was looking at yesterday, those wheels don't come wider than 8", which is kind of narrow. From a looks standpoint, they do look awesome. But for me, if I ever put wheels in my car, they would have to be wider than 9", clear big brakes, and weight no more than 25lbs.

Anyway, my vote goes to the first choice.

I think you've answered your own question. My vote would be for rim #2.

No2, but if you have a light colored interior the gold would grow on me.
If you like that pattern wheel, you might check these out.
