Lightbulb Rim color: Chrome/Silver vs Black Rims

Ok, so I need to replace my rims. stock rims are $600 a pop, and a waste of money. I was happy with them, but i had to replace 1, so now i'm going to replace them off. My RX8 is red 2009. I'm having a hard time deciding between looking at black rims or silver rims. I need some real pics of people who got both black and silver/chrome on Red RX8s to help me make a decision.

remeber, i have a Red RX8. Blue doesn't seam to work well with it, so black and silver are the top decision, but if you happen to have some other cool color suggestion pictures on red rx8s please share.

I rarely like chrome, but silver, black and gold all seem to go well with the reds.
