Default Trying to decide wheels for my car

Hrmm cant think of what wheels to get, i just recently put on a Do-Luck body kit, and iam in serious need of wheels. So i have narrowed it down to these wheels. All will be in 19, and volk will be 9.5 front 10.5 rear, or if i go RH will be 9 front 10.5 rear.
Here are my choices:
Black SF Challenges:


Black RH R5s:


Black RH J5:


Black RH J8:

SF Challenges look the best...I'd have to throw another in the mix though and say get BBS RGRs, which can be had in 19".

Hmm? With the Do-Luck kit in DB & black wheels, I'd have to pick the Challenges or the J5's.

J5's all day.


BTW challenges may be overdone, but who gives a f***? There is a reason why: Plain and simple they are sick *** wheels. Don't let that be a deterant for such an important visual element on your Z.

peace.

You say J5's all day, but then you say SF Challenges are sick looking? So which one do you think would look better on my car? Here are some pics

OH hah, sorry didn't mean to word it like that. I like the SF Challenge in DB, but I don't liek them on a DB.

I'm probably one of the few here that does not like that color scheme. Gunmetal yeah, but DB, no. Hence, IMHO go J5's.

that black Z with the SF looks freaking sick! I might just copy that. If you can't decide, just buy one wheel for each corner.
