Default Look at the Wheels

I recently bought this SC400 which was wrecked a few months ago. I replaced the hood passenger fender passenger low and high beam and the front bumper. I'm still working on getting the fender and bumper fitted like I want. Now I've bought wheels for it and looking to get them painted when I get the car painted. Cell phone pics.

Color opinions I'm looking at doing

Black face\Black lip
Gun metal face\Chrome lip
Hyper silver face\Chrome lip


If would appreciate it if someone could be kind enough to photo shop my pics and let the car down of the stands.

Are you keeping the car red ? If so, I'd go with either the silver or gunmetal centers and chrome lip.

Be different and keep the white face and polished lip. Dump it and ride out.

You know what would look ****? Gunmetal with a gloss black lip- especially if you body color match your brake calipers it would look REALLY good. Then gloss black out your emblems.
