Default Type of Rim I Should Run!

I need anyones suggestions on what type of rim they like on the 06 gs3. Do you think a fuller rim like a 5star looking wheel or spoke wheel looks better on it. I can make up my mind as to what style wheel i would like to get. I do know that i want to color match it with the car which is white with chrome lips. Any suggestions would be appreciative in helping me make a desicion. I know everyone has different taste and styles i was just looking for some ideas!

I had that same problem but then I decided to do something different than the deep dish look and i'm glad I did. Here is my car.

my opinion and i'm probably bias =P ...

20's, 3-piece, staggered, color matched, and as a secondary but important note ... lower the damn car if you go the route stated in this post, haha

GL on you ride ... it's your car so do with it as you see fit.

Thanks Rob. I have been told a couple of times. I think it looks a lot better in person also. We all should get what (we) like and not someone else because afterall you are the one paying for it.

Here is another angle.
