I think those wheels go good with your color and look great on your car; personally, I wouldn't change them.

I like both, just depends on the car color etc. I see people changing colors, black, chrome and other colors back and forth so I think it really depends on the owners need for change and that special look. Black would look good on you silver ride.

I say put black wheels on the back and leave the front chrome. Or you could put black on the right side and chrome on the left. Either way, you have the best of both worlds and you will please everyone on this forum.

Very very simple question to answer >

Forget the chrome wheels ... Forget the black wheels . . (you don't want any of those)

Only 'Comp Gray' wheels will do !

Any wheel will look good on that! Get what one tickles your fancy. Black, Chrome, and even that Comp Gray would all look sweet. Well it already looks sweet.

Don't worry what we would do.

Chrome.

Not a fan of black wheels except on bright fluorescent colors like orange or lime green

Black has been done to death. With powder coating, the entire rainbow of colors is available to you. Think outside the box, unless you are an inside the box person.
