While black rims are boss (said the guy with black rims), your current wheels will stay much "cleaner looking" longer than black will. Just so you know...

I think that black wheels need a silver lip to break up the 'all black' in the wheel well.

I agree. The silver lip on my black GTS center lock wheels is not as wide as yours, but still gives a nice look to the wheels. I like it much better than the all black look.

Here is my car with the black rims I use for driving around town. I think it really set it off.
