I would choose the black since that gunmetal one doesn't look very good in the picture haha

black will add a great contrast to a silver CL9.. obviously not the exact rims but they are Enkei's

Those black Enkei's are noice. How much?

(Mine are +45 offset I think. Aggressive but still tame)

4 rims with rubber, full set of lug nuts, hub centric rings and center caps delivered for $1950. That dosnt include 5% & 10% duty and import tax which i have confirmed.

Mine are 19" x 8.5" Lenso Type-M with machined silver lip.

Heres a link of my wheels on a website- I don't know if it helps. I don't have any close up pics of the wheels on my car, sorry. I'll take some much better pics when im finished with it- have some paint touch ups and other mods I want to do first.

They come with Kuhmo Tyres pretty sure

No I had to drive up 3 hours to Sydney for it- worth it though. Had the choice of "shit tyres" (approx. $1200 all up for wheels + installation) "average tyres" (approx. $1400 all up for wheels + installation), or "good tyres" (approx. $1600 for wheels + installation).

I chose the good tyres, which were Kumho.
