Wink Wheel help..final

Alright guys I'm going with 19's no matter what I do and have been looking around for a good 2 months over different setups and sizes. With my all black look I'm very particular and wanted a wheel with black gloss lip AND either a black gloss or matte face to it 19x8.5F and 19x9.5R..although this was my guideline I recently turned 21 and payments don't help either, so wasn't looking to drop more than $3o0o on a wheel/tire setup and i'm sure you can understand why. Custom VIPs, Vossens, DPE, VOLK, WORK wheels would be nice but I'm in NJ and I don't want to deal with slamming them in every crater in our garbage highway system and those are the only companies where I came across wheels that would match what I want. If you know of any wheels that can match this criteria that would be VERY helpful..I'm looking at these Lorenzo WL27's but the machined face I think would drive me crazy, I like black and don't know if it would stick out too much as machined. NOW FOR MY LAST 2 SUGGESTIONS..19" F-sport wheels MOST likely the NEW ones re-finished in a mirror black OR THE IS-F WHEELS re-finished in a mirror black..HELP and I am 110% on the IS-F setup at this point!! that's also been my hint in my sig. the last couple months..LET ME KNOW GUYS!! I'M COUNTING ON YOU!

The Lorenzos..veryy iffyy

Did you ever decide on rims? I came across Lorenzo rims browsing rim sites today, and am looking to see how they look on the 2IS. Both, the one you posted and the mesh style seem nice, i just dont know what kid of quality they'd be for such a price (~$900 for a staggered 19" setup).

I saw where they have those lorenzos in all chrome with the black windows too. My car is black also and thats what I think im getting (20's though) I dont wanna break the bank. Looks like im going to need a slight drop if I want the neighborhood kids to drool...
Local R&R had them in their catalogue.

Get the F-Sports and powdercoat them gloss black.

I haven't seen that before, but I think it would look good.
