What wheels on a Slate 997s?

I will be taking delivery of a new Slate Grey 997s and would like to change the wheels. What wheels would you put on if it were yours?

Thanks for the opinions!

Slate Gray Techart 20"s with a silver lip would look sweet.

From Porsche I'd get the Carrera Classic wheels
Aftermarket I'd go with F110 or somelike those from Champion with a nice lip. Personally I'd stay away for 20" wheels.

Ray,

Do you think you could PS these 840R's to a Slate Gray center?

Thanks!

I agree w/Thomas - Kinesis F110's would really set off the color.
