I need your opinions on which base rims look best, if you please.

The first looks much better imho. The second distracts from the model too much as the colour is too vibrant. Try it with black as well - having such a neutral model colour may make the model stand out a lot more on a black rimmed base (boring I know but it gets the job done).
