Default Paint part of my new rims?

I have some new rims and thought the might look better with part of the rim painted. ALLKAR at protouring .com did a photoshop for me what does every one think? better all polished or part blacked out.

The middle one looks great. I just did something similar this week.

Look on the last page of my build thread and you can see before and after.

All three look great but I agree with the rest. Do the middle one.

I see an overwelming trend toward the middle picture. Thats the one I like the best as well. I will post some pictures if I actually have the guys to start painting on my new rims.
