You have a black car -- I'd go with the black rim...

Guys, these are the other rims I was debating on getting. They're Giovanna Sabina's. The black is a bolt on cap, just like my rims.

J-Ro, you can easily do 20s stragger if you have a 250 RWD. I'm running Giovanna Ararats with 20x8.5 and 20x10 with no rubbing.
