Question Wheel choices for Veilside MR-S

I got my Veilside MR-S on Monday (the UPS package was mutilated but the kit and two wheel sets were fine), and I'm pretty happy w/it. I want to use the kit rims (which look great on it) on my BMW M Coupe.
The rims on the MR-S:

The rims on the M Coupe:

With Kranz Shokei rims:

With BBS DTM's:


I'm leaning towards the Kranz Shokei rims...what do you all think? These two were the only ones from my stash that really seemed to fit the car, beyond the Andrew Racing rims that came with it. Any of the rims I would use would have the centers painted in aluminum and the rims themselves left shiny.

The Kranz Shokei look good on the MRS and the Andrew Racing will look fantastic with a roundel and a tiny "///M" on them...

I'm going to say the BBS, the kranze seem to get swallowed up by the big wheel arches.

I think i like the kranz also. it looks better to me. i saw that kit at my local hobby store, and the guy told me some punk kid stole the rims out of EVERY box he had so he replaced each box w/ some aoshima rims no charge. that's so F**ked up though cuz the dude is a pretty nice old guy who knows about imports although he's a domestic guy..............
