Opinion on these rims

Hey guys,
just wanted to get your opinion on these rims (mostly considering the color) for an 08 Platinum Metallic, Sport Coupe.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/19X8-5-19X9-5-40-STR615-TITANIUM-5X114-3-RIMS-FIT-INFINITI-G35-G37-FORD-MUSTANG-/111600767700?hash=item19fbec92d4&vxp=mtr
Thanks!

I've seen these TSWs firsthand and the matte bronze looks really nice, and a bit darker in person. They'd look nice with platinum IMO

Also Niche just came out w/ these, not sure if they're darker in person, but a nice concave look

What color is your car? Would look ok with white I think, no so good on darker colours.

Edit: I need to learn to read... not sure how it would look with platinum.

Thanks! Definitely like the TSWs as well. The bronze rims with the platinum metallic color, I'm not so sure about, hence why I'm getting an opinion on them! However, the STRs in Hyper Silver look much better in my opinion.

These ESRs are a nice look IMO and outcastgarage has them for $162 (or less)

ESR Wheels SR05 19"
And outcast is also blowing out their Vossens too, these are just $237 each


Vossen CV1 20"

I think they look good... both rims AND color.

But, are they going to weigh more than your stockers?
