Default Black 5-spoke Rims...

Anybody have any pictures/suggestions of a nice set of BLACK 5-spoke rims, preferably with a chrome lip

I've been looking for lightweight rims but can't find any affordable ones that I like the looks of...
So I've decided to settle for anything BLACK 18x9.5 to 18x10.5 with a polished/chrome/even red lip and under $400 per rim
Only one's I've seen on mustangs were Torquethrusts/Bullits which I am not too fond of, since they are very overplayed where I live.. also don't like saleens/cobras (no lip)

Suggestions/pics greatly appreciated, thanks!

I have been considering these myself. I want to fray away from the typical mustang owner and also head towards the racing aspect. These wheels come in 18x9 ($359) and 18x10 ($379). The 18x9's weigh 19.4lbs each and the 18x10's weigh 20.8lbs. Thats really light and for that cheap a cost. Those wheels are lighter than stock our 17x8 wheel and there bigger and wider. My wheels now are 17x9 (24lbs) and 17x10.5 (27lbs.) But the only problem is that your moving the weight outward. But its worth it. I think those wheels will look really good. Even if they dont have a chrome lip.

Or you can get these but there more expensive. 18x9.5 ($589) 25.6lbs. and 18x10.5 ($609) 26.5lbs. Thats alot more weight and cost but they do have the chrome lip. and are half an inch wider, they look real nice on mustangs.

Or these 18x9 ($214) 25.5lbs and 18x10 ($238) 27lbs.

yeah I saw those SSRs and really liked them, but they dont come in black
I really want a gloss black rim, i think it will look nice on my Red Mach 1 w/ the standard mach black decals
I just found these online and might actually go ahead and buy them
