I'm not a fan of chrome, so I'll have to say the black set. They will probably look better with the color of your car.

Cheers,

Well, with my taste they're both FUGLY.

I'd get M Rims.

But if I had to choose between the two, after Photochopping the blacks into your current car, I'd say the black ones.
