Default New Wheel Options?

I wanted to get some opinions from you guys on some new Vossen Wheels.. Now I love my Vossen 084's but with the new year around the corner it maybe time for a fresh look...

I have my eye on the new CV5's.. The problem is what color to go with?

http://www.vossenwheels.com/wheels/VVSCV5.aspx

I've started a Poll so please give me me your input and comments below..

thanks

I think it would have to depend on the color of the car.

I'm really leaning towards the Matte Graphite.. All three look great but wanted to really change the look..

I agree! Gives it that sporty but yet luxury look.

IMO, it seems like you have a lux/vip/exe kind of thing going on, and anything but the silver will look more sporty.

However, if you were to say get your roof done black, and then get the matte graphite machined?
