Question Need last minute opinion on Vossen wheel finish

I've decided on the Vossen 082 for my car.

I'm having trouble between the black machined finish vs the silver machined finish. I'm going for a clean classy/semi-vip look.

The black machined finish makes the spokes itself pop out more, but what I bothers me is the screws around the edges are still silver and stand out too much around the outer edges. Doesn't make it look as clean.

The silver machined finish is all silver which may seem bland to some, but I think these wheels itself will look bigger and make more of a "wow" factor on a darker color like blue slate especially with my tinted tales because of the big contrast. Also looks a bit cleaner in my opinion.

Your guys' opinions are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

This is a picture of my car:

I think the dark finish would def look better on your car. I would paint those rivets black to make the rim look cleaner. Everything else is good!

I'm going with the black finish and a black lip, but you'll see what i'm going to do to tie all that silver together . sorry to thread jack lol but yeah i would def go with silver. the rims looked sick on my car when i was rolling on them. I liked them a lot more than the 084 5 spokes

Only thing that bugged me about the silver is the little rectangle designs in between the screws on the edge of the rims, looks a little busy. Its not as apparent in the black machined because that part is black. I think I'm just picky haha
