Actually the Cup wheels look pretty good, but the black Fuchs probably would be my choice.

Choose what ever makes you happy

Black-centered Fuchs with standard anodized outer portions. Polished outers on that car color (or most colors!) looks bad to me. Leave the shiny wheels to those that drive old Camaros.

The black fuchs or the cups. The polished fuchs look more like they belong on an earlier car.

Here is my choice in order of preference, with my two-cents
A
The one that Ian did, black centers) look to be 16 x 6 & 7's. Classic look but still looks right.
C
Keep the 993 Cups with 17 " Bridgestonesthat are on now. I have them on my car and I have good taste.
B
The one that Coupe87 did, polished petals & lips- are 16 x 7 & 8's. Too much isolated chrome, whatever that means. I'm only on my first cup of coffee.
