Which "finish" rims look best?

I'm looking at the ZL1-style rims for my 2011 Cyber Grey convertible. My question is; machine-faced or gloss black? I can't decide which one looks best with my exterior color being cyber grey. I appreciate all input, thanks!

** I'm just a bit worried that the gloss black clashes with the grey, so I want to hear your opinions! **

I am voting for black with red or silver calipers. Well actually since you have a vert then maybe the machines face would look better on the vert than the coupe you know with the top down. Oh the possibilities. So hard to choose what I like the most for my car. It's soooo hard to choose!

That's exactly how I feel! It's unbelievably difficult to make a decision with stuff like this. With my car being Cyber Grey, I'm just worried that the black won't exactly "fit". I really like the machine face, but sometimes I think that there's a little bit too much going on with it.

Which rims look best on my car?

As obvious as it is, I've got a Cyber Grey Metallic convertible. I'm looking at the ZL1-style rims for it, and I'm completely stuck trying to decide which "finish" looks best given my current color scheme. So, I need your input before I buy!

1) Gloss Black

2) Machine-Face

I'm just a bit worried that the black sort of clashes with my car, since it's Grey. As dumb as it sounds, I just worry that they wouldn't exactly "fit" with my exterior color. Hmm....

I would definitely go with the black. Honestly the 10 spoke ZL1 wheels don't clash with ANY of the colors offered, imo. I personally want the machine faced ones for my car, because It would just match better. I have a picture on my phone of a synergy green with similar wheels to the Machine Faced wheels, and it looks absolutely MEAN. I will post that picture in a minute.
