Default Avant Garde M310 Wheel Questions

I know for sure that I will be getting Avant Garde M310 wheels. I'm not going to be going staggered due to the inability to rotate tires. I am going to be going 9.5 Square. But my question is, what tires should I get? I plan on coiling my car and dropping it a bit, so I know I shouldn't get too big of tires, but I'm not wanting to go flush or anything.

Also, my main question. I'm not sure if I should get the matte black or the silver wheels whenever it comes to time. I love them both, but I'm just not sure what would look best. I have a Black '05 Touring edition by the way. Thanks for reading and thanks for your opinions in advance.

Just for reference, here are some pictures of the wheels if you're not familiar with them.

Its all a matter of taste.Personally,I'm a bit tired of the black wheel look.
Especially on a black car.Be different if the rim was polished.I like the silver.
However,if it were me,I'd go in between..a gunmetal shade.Somewhat is on the GTR.
This would look great on your black Z.I also prefer having a lip on my wheel.
The wheels you are looking at are not expensive.Another option if you are leaning towards a alloy/silver in a mesh design is ACE Strada.I've got e'm on my Z(HYPER BLACK).As far as tires go,check the thread on sizes.What size(diameter)are the wheels you are looking at?18-19"?Need this to give input on a tire size.
Check my veh pics--similar to the ones you are looking at.

Wow, thanks for the reply, it was full of info. I was also thinking like a machined/gunmetal look. I'm going 19x9.5 square. I was gonna go 11 square, but that needs a lot of work to fit and run properly. I like your wheels a lot, but with the way the back looks, I'm going to take a stab and guess you have staggered wheels, so my lip wouldn't be that big. I love the big lips on certain wheels, but most of them require a staggered set of wheels. So I figured I would just opt out of the lip thing and settle for some still, very nice wheels.

EDIT:
Here is also a picture of the Gunmetal Machined ones,


And here they are on a black car:


What do you think? :x

Looks fresh man. Love these wheels. Run 255-265 width tires for the best look IMO. Have 255s in the front on my car and it has ample room. I do have a drop and fender roll though. May fit differently but tire width shouldn't be effected.

Awesome, thanks so much! Do you know what coils are best? Have you heard anything bad about top speed pro coils? Curious because of the low price of 560 for them, making my agent orange act up a bit :s

I would suggest you read the Top 100 FAQ before making another thread or purchase.

This is where you would have found your answer regarding tire sizing:

You will also need to read up on VDC/TCS:

Thanks for the info, I apologize for the needless thread. I was just trying to obtain some information based on what the community thinks looks best on a black car.

The thread isn't needless, it's missing important points that you should refer to the links I posted for.
