Rim Suggestions

I am looking to get some rims for my 2005 Silver Grand Prix. I have stock rims right now(the 5 spoke non crome..dunno what they're called) and am looking to upgrade to something that looks better. I have 25% tinted windows, smoked out tail lights and black window vent visors installed on the car. I have a decal similiar to this going down both sides of the car:

The difference is i had it done at my uncles shop so it says grand prix instead for the lettering and we thought it looked to short for the car so we extended it so it goes to about 2 inches from the tail lights and the same with the headlight(keeping the curve more with the wheel well)

I'll try to get pictures up soon but my computer is on the frits so it barely works as it is, but any suggestions would be great. I'm trying to keep my black and silver theme so any suggestions would be great. Thanks
 


It sounds like we are in the same boat. I have a silver 06 GP. I like that decal though. Does it look good on silver? I cant decide about rims for mine. I think a gun metal or some black rims look good on the silver. The gun metal does look good, I just want to see some pictures of different rims on a silver GP first. Silver seems to be an interesting color, it limits options in my opinion.
 
My opinion - since you've gone with the "murdered out" look - you need to get a black rim - with polished/chrome lip - or a black/chrome combo rim. Here are a few that I, personally; like. ;)

AR 882 Phantom:

BOSS 335 (nice classic look)

My personal favorites - but I would get Chrome w/black inserts :)

Yea i personally think silver is a good color. Only looks good with few options though..i'll get some pics up cause i like my car's look so far. Was thinkin about some black or black chrome rims

Thanks for the suggestions and pics of the rims too btw from the swash..some of those look very appealing.
 
i like most of those, but why the hell do they put those stupid rivets along the outer rim? it looks so tacky imo
