Need wheel suggestions

Guys and Gals i need some input here.. i need to get a set of wheels for the car and im going to go with HRE's since i sell them locally and would be good if i used them on the car for display to customers. So what style should i go with? i want to do 20x8.5 and 20x10.5 or 11 for the rear. The car will be silver. let me know what everyone thinks.

i like any of the new 940 series. i did this mockup with the 943, but would have gone chrome, had i not done a different wheel. i think one of those with a deep lip will be real nice. are you lowering too, its a must with 20s!

I want to lower it a bit not too low though.. actually those 943R's look very nice but they are SO expensive even with my discount. Id rather go with the 840R for the same price.
