Default Help deciding on new wheels

I'm in the market for new wheels and I'm torn between a few. I figured I would get some opinions for you guys before I pulled the trigger. I'm looking at machined XD addicts and machined Rockstars, Machined fuel hostages, Ion alloys 177, Mamba M5 and M4. I live at the beach and frequently drive on it too so durability is important. I'm also open to other suggestions. Thanks in advanced guys!

I'm actually looking for a set similar to yours. Black with the machined center and machined lip.

The rockstars are the only ones in that group that I like but they are everywhere.

It would be MUCH cheaper. And I do like the stock ones. If I could lay down a clean/durable line with the plastidip so I could achieve the black with machined lip look that would be perfect. Any ideas on how to make that happen?

Rockstars would look okay, but the rest I don't like!
