I don't like chrome anything on a yellow car. Gunmetal looks sweet, and a satin finish black is usually nice. Hyperblack leads me to believe they're really shiny. . .
5 spokes tend to look like stock wheels- or worse. 7 are usually cool. When you say 10 spoke are the evenly spaced or are the like 5X2 spoke (5 sets of 2)? 10 even spaced can look good, and 5X2 s are aight.

Got pics? (we don't need all the details, just give us an idea )

I would say go for the chrome 10 spoke design. BLING BLING YALL!

But then people would be like "omafmoamgsd! Chrom sux0rds!" and then id have to go with the hyperblack second and then the gunmetal last

But I might be wrong, never seen chrome on yellow so I dunno
