Either the middle or the right in the top pic... I really like the right ones though. The black rim with polished face is sexy!!!

Black on black. I like the polish/black but you don't want 2-tone (why'd ya put it in?? ). The gray ones are my fav but don't think they'd work on your black T/A

I don't normally go for the chrome but on black it is almost a must.

Personally, I can't stand black wheels in most cases. Not one of your options, but I'm also going with chrome for a black car.

If you don't want the 2 tone, go with the competition grey. It's dark enough to keep the blacked out look, but it will break up the black a little bit.
