Really nice choices except for the last one. Personally I'd go for the middle one as the shiny chrome ring is just a little too pimped on the first rim in my view (hard on my screen to discern whether there's also a shiny chrome ring on rim 2). The middle is very clean, powerful and sporty.

Alternatives would be BMW's 172M and Alpina's classic rim but that's costly...

yeah it's not bad at all, it's just in comparison to the two others that it pales.

I looked at the Beyern site and they have many awesome wheels. I'm not familiar with the brand as it to my knowledge isn't available in Europe but I wish it was. I noted their speciality is the mirror cut lip. Offhand it may look good but in my view it's a little too much bling and I'd no doubt tire of it in the not so long run. You've gone thru a lot of trouble to clean your car up and remove any chrome from the exterior, as far as I read your signature. I think mirror cut lips would be a little too much in your face, gangsta style but if that's the look you're going for then no 1 would do it. Still I like no 2.

Rosslyn and Multi all look great. Multi looks like the Alpina and I'd like to have a closer look at it if only they had a dealer around these parts!

I tend to lean a little to the blingier side, so I would go with the first one.

I like the 2nd one most. The top one is way too busy for me.

The bottom one is similar to wheels I have, except mine doesn't have the rivets and has black windows. If you like that design, you might as well get the wheels I have; since I think my wheels look better.
