I like black wheels, but black on black might be a bit to much, might be better with the silver to provide a bit of contrast.

It's personal preference. I don't like black wheels so I would go silver. Kev

It follows a pattern .. the 650 has dark grey on almost-black-blue:

And I quite fancy doing the wheels on the OHs Mini black (on a blue car) and deleting all the chrome, too. She won't notice...

I like the dark smoked chrome/silver look but I quite like the new gloss black/diamond cut wheels popular at the moment. When I got mine done the wheel place recommended not going gloss black as you need to keep the wheels clean all the time to get the effect. He showed me photos of dirty gloss black wheels and the tyres just blended in.

I never even considered the colour based on how often I’d wash them lol. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

Silver is in keeping with the side grill/ step lip and your chrome wing mirror tips and just about the door handles

Black, personally I'd want to replace the side grill and wing mirror tips with black/ smoked and go black door handles

I'd personally go with "smoked" same colour as the door handles to pull those elements in without jarring the items above... 2008 TDV8 Buckingham Blue- SOLD
