I like option one, but truthfully speaking I don't think gold would match the flow of your car. If you want to go with the "more low" look with really flush wheels that a lot of people on here like, I'd say go with 18x8.5's or something along that line with a lower offset like +35 or so. I'm not an expert, so it's just my opinion from my knowledge.
