Look at the new gold/bronze thread. Pretty cool. Maybe like said above, the new cool.

Black on Black looks good and i am biased......

I'm prejudiced as well. I like the contrast of the machined lip.

if they are fully black... its just looks like its dirty to me. I dont like it. the above car looks good but silver or gold or bronze are def better than all black.

Black-on-black was an option, code XD9, and would be period-correct.
This may be sacrilege but, how about white rims?

This thread has some photos of black with the silver lip....

Mine are like on Abe's post, black with silver rim on a black car. Shortly after buying the car, I started looking for silver rims. Never found anything to my liking at a reasonable price, so, kept the black wheels. Came to like them, but highly recommend the silver rim for a black car.

There is someone near where I live who has a blacked out 997 cab. Black top, black rims. He/she even has dark tint on the windows. It's awesome looking!

Here's a better (and more current) picture of mine. XD9 (rims and caps ext color) on the XRR Carrera sport wheels.

Of course, a personal choice, but I love the combo. Changing to black lugs this weekend.

That polished lip makes all the difference on a black wheel on a black car. Looks really good. Without it, it all just blends together into one big black mass as I see it at least.

I do like the black on black (as my avatar shows)
