Your car, your choice, but imo on a silver car they wouldn't look right. Black car definately, Green maybe, but not silver :P

they'd look wrong.....    not even convinced about on a black car to be honest...

basically i don;t like black wheels very much.....   

black centres with polished chrome /ally/ silver/ rims  , just maybe , but my no means a dead cert.

last week I have seen a combination of silver color (arms) and black (used in inside edges where the brake dust covers only)  which was nice.. but even that model will not fit every color.. :-/

Not for me either.

Those wheels don't look to bad!!  But prob wouldn't suit a silver car, might be better on something a little darker! :)

its a nay from me as well,never been a fan of black wheels but its your car and your choice :y :y

Title: Re: Black wheels,yay or nay
Post by: mantahatch on 20 October 2010, 09:22:04

No from me aswell I am afraid.

Would like to see a set of gold wheels on a black car, I think that would look cool.

I've seen a few cars around with black wheels, the wheel arches look sort of 'empty'..... :-/

Title: Re: Black wheels,yay or nay
Post by: Olympia5776 on 20 October 2010, 10:33:04

I've yet to see a car with black painted wheels that looks good.
No for me........

Title: Re: Black wheels,yay or nay
Post by: MV6Matt on 20 October 2010, 10:44:37

I do but then my Cars black.
The Fox wheels would be ok on a silver car (as someone has pointed out they are faintly reminiscant of the Cardboard Prefacelift MV6 wheel).

Your car - your look!

Have fun choosing whatever you do............. :y

Saw a silver audi with black wheels yesterday, and tbh it made the car look dirty and they didn't suit it at all!!

Here's my new toy, they came like it, and personally like them, but that's just me! They aren't quite fully black...more dark grey!

Actually not being a huge fan of black wheels, they look quite nice and like the colour of your car too! Mines black and thinking of chroming my face lift alloys from silver!

So i think its gonna be a no then aswell from me.What about anthracite,which for those who dont know what that is,its a kind of dark grey,but then again i do like the idea of just doing the inside rim black,which someone mentioned. :-/

Title: Re: Black wheels,yay or nay
Post by: humbucker on 22 October 2010, 16:40:02

black wheels look great on silver/white cars. not sure about anthracite on black or silver tho, not quite 'black' enough.

these are the wheels on my latest acquisition. ignoring the style of wheel *(although theyre for sale if youre interested)* the colour works well against the silver bodywork.

Sorry but it's a no from me , but you have to live you life the way you like it so it's up to you. Im thinking of doing mine gold to match the cars colour but i was going to spray the spare to see how it looks most spares are black so maybe you should  put that on and see the effect  :y
