What rims to chose!

hey,
i have a 95' C280 and would like people's opinions on what rims i should buy, my choices are either the Lorinser LM5 Replica rims silver with polished lip, and the ADR Sterling Rims that are diamond cut with a polished lip (both in 18 inch)? What do you think?
Lorinsers:


ADR's:

My girlfriend says you should go with the Lorinsers also. She thinks the ADR's belong on a 17 year old's civic. You should do what she says. She's HOT!!!

i say...

140 spoke platinum/gold dayton wire rims would look best on a c class if you can afford it.

and i was just messing with you... hehe... whatsup bro. hit up the lm5's i think they look clean and everybody seems to dig them. henry's car looks the illest in those rims though so it's a close call man.

The thing about it is henry has the real deal Lowenharts(correct me if I'm wrong) on his ride so that is not a good comparo picture.
