4th Generation Need help picking rims for the Cam!

Okay, so I need new tires so I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone and get aftermarket wheels also. I have a gen 4 black camry and I've always loved the look of gold wheels on black cars so I've been looking for gold wheels for my ride. I've narrowed it down to three. I was hoping you guys could help me decide. Let me know your opinions are these three:

Thanks!

Well, I can' say that I'm a big fan of gold wheels, but of those 3 I'd say either 1 or 3. Don't care for 2 at all.

Have you considered bronze or are you hard over on "gold"?

I vote #2.
I can't stand 1 and 3, IMO "universal" rims are butt ugly.

You may also want to look at the wheels on www.tirerack.com. I got mine there.

Those rims are knockoffs of brand names. I would suggest tirerack too, but if you insist on ebay, I would say 1st ones.

BTW, I dunno if you realized, the 3rd set's picture doesn't even match the descriptions. The listing says 5x100/114 but the pic is 4x100/114.

gold rims are subaru impreza rims (just like white strips are for Dodge vipers)

but if i must choose: model 2 the shape and the gold from 1.

Hope you can find what you like!!

Yea gold only works on a few cars and the camry isn't one of them. Ebay can be a good place to buy rims but the ones you are looking at just arent that nice, if i absolutely had to choose one id choose the second

I was leaning towards the second, and now I feel confident going with those. Now heres my problem.. I have a hell of a time figuring out how offsets work. Will these wheels fit if I just throw them on or do I need spacers? Will I need to roll my fenders? As for tires I was going to go with 205/45/18. Are these the right tires? Thanks!
