Try Wheel Enhancement. You can pick your car color & wheel color.

I've been thinking about this myself... Not sure if it looks that good though. Maybe with a silver trim line?

The black decals and lip make it look decent. Doesn't look that good on a plain vanilla car.

I think, as with all wheel colors, the design of the wheel is integral to the success of the overall look. I know it's a completely subjective thing, however, alot needs to be considered (caliper/rotor exposure) whether or not the car is dropped, center caps, satin or glossy...i'm a nerd about so I could go on, haha. For the record, I'm a fan of accenting the wheels a touch rather than have them fully disappear. You can ask Todd. about my black wheel reluctance...

Default Here is my C2 with basalt black wheels.

I know I'm biased but I love the silver w/ black wheels combo.

use gunmetal or silver matte. black on silver does not really work, for me at least, plus it hides wheel details completely.

I just bought new track wheels. OZ calls the color anthracite. It's sort of a silvery dark gray.
