Default Need imput! - New rims for b6 A4 1.8t Q

I just purchased a 2005 Audi a4 1.8t quatro with manual tranny. The color is Moro Blue Pearl Effect. I am also new to this site.

The car came with the upgraded 17". I’m planning on using those rims for winter use and buying 18" for the summer... Because the color of my car I cant decide which color/ style of rims to go for

What do you guys think?

I think the lightest you should go is hypersilver. I myself am not a fan of black rims, unless they are on a white, black or silver car. What kind of style do you like? Mesh, spokes, deep dish?

I was thinking maybe a white or gold ish brown rim would look good
What you guys think?

Also I liked the Spyn zx edition but is size 18 with a lip... you think the lip would not look right on a 18 rim?
Also liked the style of the Hartmann Forged DTM-7 but don’t think they still make it and they were going for 600+$ a rim (don’t want to spend more then 1500+ tire)

Do yourself a favour and try to pick something light yet strong ...
