What else have you done to the car and what's the car color?

Chrome would look nice on a kitted black or white car...

Diamond cut looks nice on all colors IMO...

Wow, those are expensive... I look up some prices ect. $500 a wheel? I would just get J-lines if it were me. But between the 3 go with the diamond cut. looks classy.

I was always a big fan of diamond cut because you could really
see the whole rims design.
