This is what a grey car will look like with V710 wheels (from Trinity, of course):
Sorry so dirty, it's been raining.

The 166's SUCK! They come stock on my car and I hate them. Hell, I even had them powdercoated a gunmetal color and I still hate them. They are played out and they are boring. The CSL's are much classier. Nothing beats the mesh look. There's a reason they're classics. They never go out of style.
As for the 710's, I don't like them as much as the CSL's because they have that lip around the circumference of the wheel. To me, that looks like a cheap mold. Now granted, HRE makes a similar set with this lip and we all know that HRE does not make cheap molds. However, for me, I like the spokes to extend out towards the circumference and be flush. It also makes the wheel look bigger, which is important, since you are going to 19's and not 20's. That "edge/lip" around the circumference doesn't flow. It catches your eye and that's not in a good way. Furthermore, brake dust will find itself getting notched in there all the time, which will make cleaning these wheels more of a pain.
As I said earlier, CSL's in GunMetal. That's what you should do.
