the black defenetly looks good considering the wheel,that wheel does look sweet but it would fit more on a thin spoked HRE style rim.
Gunmetal may look sweet,just expiriment till you hit the sweet spot!

Burma, I got to take a look at the wheels next to the car today in the sunlight, and you were spot on about the HOK black making the wheels look brown.

I'll try to post a pic later of a chrome example.

Are those 3-piece wheels? Who made them? They look great...both colours, although I voted silver.

Please post a pic of your car. I have the same color and was thinking about doing the same.

Boostguy, I would say stick with the silver, it looks classic. I agree that the black makes the rim look cheap.

I am waiting right now for my wife to sent me the pics as she is the keeper of the digital camera. She has them on her computer at work and last time I bugged her she was to busy to send them!
I hope to post pics today.
