Mesh wheel options....photochoppers wanted

so this is my ride and as I continue to agonize over which wheels I will slap on in the near future, I do believe I have decided on mesh...but which ones? There are so many nice mesh set-ups out there.... Are there any photochoppers in the house that care to take a stab at meshing up my G so I can see what the different styles look like? I am putting the Eiback PK kit on soon and will be upsizing to either 19 or 20's staggered and am still debating silver finish, anthracite, titanium, hyper black, machined with black windows, or gunmetal. Some help would be awesome. Thanks in advance.

Perhaps post up some wheels you are looking at and include as well. That may help get the attention of some of our resident photochoppers.

while I can appreciate that sniper, I happen to like various types of mesh styling and didn't ask for opinions to kill my thread.

Forgestar F14's, 2nd to last ones, in gunmetal is my choice. I think it looks more aggressive than the tighter mesh's.

The vs-xx only look good in aggressive offsets. Our sedans can only go to a certain point where it starts to loom overdone. If you want to run something "nice" the best offsets I could think of are 20x9 +25 and 20x10 +32 to +37 with an eibach drop will be "perfect". The tires that you could use are 245/35/20 and 285/30/20. If you want some stretch then use 235/35/20 and 275/30/20. If you want more stretch then use 225/35/20 and 255/35/20. You really have to play around with tires sizes and offsets to get the "perfect" look.
