As soon as I read it, I thought black is always better. But I'm really not sure in your case. It wouldn't look bad, but if you went with a dark grey, it might look better. Your choice man. I'm going black soon.

black on black ends up looking like you lost your hub caps. spraypained black rims look even worse then that

Leave them as they are, if u want grey just drive for a week and don't wash your wheels. other then that black looks horrible just like lago's said its like u lost your hubcaps.

The only kinda black rims i like are the ones with the chrome lip and deep dish. I think painting ur wheels black will only make ur rims look cheap. I'd paint them bronze.

black on black can look really good if done right .. if you want black go black... it give the car a showdow feel espically at night makes the car look like is floating on air..
