Default TSW Cadwell Wheels

After spending many nights searching for the perfect wheels for my car, I've finally settled on the TSW Cadwell. I plan to get 18x8 and 18x9.5. The only problem I have now is deciding on whether to get the chrome ones or gunmetal w/mirror cut face and lip. I've setup a poll to see what everyone thinks I should get.

I think the gunmetal with the mirror cut would look pretty awesome.

On pretty much any other car, I would say gunmetal, but on yours, with all of the chrome accents, anything but chrome will look out of place IMO.

Question, though: Why the hell are you getting narrower than stock rims up front? just doesn't make sense to me...

Good question! I don't know. lol
I guess I want a staggered look and all they have in 18's are x8 and x9.5. I guess I could go 9.5" all the way around but would 9.5 fit in the front?
