Well, there are countless options for wheels out there, so it really boils down to what you like.

Contrast is always good, as you already know getting the black on white option.

So youre going to want to go with a light colored wheel. I wouldnt do the black on black thing unless youre gonna murder the whole car out.

I would get something in a Machined or brushed finish. If you get lips def get polished step lips.

You can get an open wheel like a 5 spoke, or a mesh wheel like a 10 or 12 spoke. Depends what you like. Look at high-end wheel manufacturer's websites to get ideas on styles.

Another factor is cost, how much are you willing to spend? You can get a 1pc cast wheel(cheapest), a 2or3pc forged wheel or a Monoblock forged wheel.(lightest/expensive)

Get 19s, 18s are a lil small and leave too much unsightly wheel gap.

Go wide or Go home. Dont be scared to run a lower offset and wider wheel, poking the wheel a lil past the fender with a slightly stretched tire. As long as you dont go too overboard it wont affect it.

Again, these are just my opinions, they may or may not comply with your tastes.
