Poll: Which rims should i put on my C320?

I was wondering which rims should i put on my black C320. I have KW Coilovers on their way, so my car will be pretty low and slammed. I saw two rims i really liked on this TL and 3 Serious from some forums i was browsing. I was thinking:

19" Dronell Type II Chrome rims...


OR

19" Lowenhart BR5 Chrome Rims....

i like the dronell's better, they are much more simple and easy going... also a lot easier to clean. i also think that it would also go along with the car better, its not to crazy...

ive seen the lowenhart BS5 in person in the new super crystal finish (not chrome) and, i must admit, it is the tightest rim ive ever seen. they shine so bright, its blinding. i considered poppin' off my Carlssons and getting them, but i got the lots of other Carlsson mods, so i decied to keep them to match. here is a pic of it

no, read my post closer. the first line says they are "BS5" now "BR5". they are brand new and also come in a new kind of finish, "super crystel" which is much more "bling bling" than chrome, which i have. the BS5's in that finish with phat tires will cost over six grand in 19" setup. i have never seen these rims in 20", but they do make five different 19" configurations, 19x8, 19x8.5, 19x9, 19x9.5, and 19x10.

No. They're too flashy for me, too.

I'm not fond of either, but I would choose the Lowenharts.
