i like the rims you have on there now. its not the best job but i did a quick photoshop of what they would look like gunmetal with a chrome lip. they would actually look pretty sweet with your color car.

get some 19" ADR m-sport, hyperblack. and then get the lip polished.
or for something different, check out the falken koblenz, i like the way it looks.
i would also reccomend the bbs rs-gt, but they cost more than your car is worth, and you probably wouldnt want that.
