What are your design preferences for wheels? What do you prefer in regards to:

I like the offset and step lip. I do not like the color and thin multi-spokes. So I looked for ways to make the wheels meet my preferences:
Attempt #1: I bought a set of stock Tesla wheel covers. I painted 2 gold and sticker bombed the other 2. I didn't like how it turned out, so I didn't use the covers.

Attempt #2: I like the design of Tesla Model S 21" Arachnid wheels, so I bought a set of wheel covers that copy the design for 18" Aero wheels. The covers are black, so I painted them silver. Unfortunately the spray paint came out gray. I wanted a lighter color. I like how the covers are concave like the wheels. I'll roll like this until I find wheels that meet all my preferences.

The wheel covers remind me of the wheels on my previous car: Hyundai Genesis Coupe stock 18's. I wanted the spray paint to match this color.

Before the Hyundai I had a Scion tC on SSR Professor SP1's. Those wheels met my preferences: 5 fat spoke, dished/concave, step lip.

- color and finish
- spokes (fat or thin; 5 or many more; mesh)
- lips (flat, step, none; polished or matching the face)
- I hate black wheels
- I hate thin spoke designs
- I prefer a concave face or dished step lips
