Default Thinking of new wheels, what do you guys think?

I am thinking of some new wheels for the GS and scrapping the whole new bike idea.My problem is that I am trying to go classy yet vip'ish.My buddy does not agree on my choice of wheels, he says they look horrible.he is into more euro style-mb thing.I have a few ideas.I really don't want iforged or hre due to so many GS' having them already, no offense!These are just 2 examples of what i am looking at, I like the full dish look.If anyone has any others let me know,thanks!

All are nice and high quality wheels. Don't really care for the first three though.

My pick would be the 5th wheel from the top.

I am personally not a big fan of dish wheels (for my car) because I like to show the brakes a bit. I do like the look, though. I kind of liked the MC1 because it is a bit different until I saw it on the CLS (and that is my favorite sedan right now).

If I had to choose one of the styles above now, it would be the DTR.

I like the Mayas. I would get those for myself if it wasn't available in the sizes I want.

I actually like the 1st wheel. Looks hot.

Check out this gallery scroll down to look at the Blitz Z3's. Very similiar.
