Dude, the 547R's with black centers are soooo hot, but of course I'm partial. I really do think those wheels are both aggressive and classy at the same time - I might recommend looking at anodized black as opposed to painted though, as painted gets washed out in bright light and looks somewhat odd.

Lou, I think he ment what color the car is. And the 547R looks great, but I think the picture makes it look even better.

What about the Cargraphic Turbo R wheel. I think that might look good too.

cargraphics or Champion monolites IMO. Turbos just look classic with the mesh wheel look. Any of those choices will look good though.
