Ok, I want eveyone's opinion that wants to give one.
I am trying to decide whether I should keep my stock wheels and just paint/powdercoat them?
Or change to Aftermarket wheels?
Here is my car with stockers on it

Well...
Your stock rims already look like aftermarket ones to me (Ours & most of the ones I've seen are totally different) but...
The first ones would be my choice if they have the correct lug pattern.
The second ones look hot in a large diametre (Someone on here has got a yellow Tib with what looks to be 18s of those same wheels... Niiice!).

The third ones are nice (check Blacktibs' profile/pics... He's also got 'em).
Here's a nice Tib with 18s...

The fourth ones, IMHO, look pretty gay! No offense or anything, I just can't see them looking good on a Tib.

Get aftermarket rims man. I like the second ones, but be careful with MSR, I had a set picked out. I forget the model of them now, but they were just like the ones I have on my tib. (with the rivets around the outside of the wheel) As fate had it they were lost in shipping so I got different ones for way cheaper. I saw a pair of them last month and they were just about the ugliest looking rims I have ever seen. There were holes drilled into the polished lip. The picture did not show anything like that. THey looked like they served a purpiose, but didn't at all just looked ugly. Just be careful.
