black mustang/gunmetal rims?

Anyone have pics of gun metal rims on black mustangs? Thinking of maybe switching out the OEM ones...

I'm not really a fan of chromed out rims, and too many people have black on black! Gun metal/dark grey rims seem like they would be legit!

Current Rims:

I don't know how gunmetal would look on a blacked out Mustang, but I've always thought black rims with red trim on the lip looks sick. Might not contrast well with the white stripe on your car, sick GT though

Thanks man!

I've also been debating taking off the stripe and getting a matte black wrap! Saving up for a wedding so I have to do the appearance stuff in stages most likely. But if the gunmetal doesn't look as hot as I'm imagining it to be, then I'll keep the OEMs. I actually still like them!

This is a very nice look. Not a fan of the BOSS wheels but foose makes the legends in gray that look just like the ones in the picture. I have the Black Shelby Razors and wish I had gone with gray.

+1 on getting rid of the stripes

Mine with the Black 20" Shelby Razors

That top picture you posted would be just what I'm thinking about if it was darker... but i like it!

Nice looking mustang btw!

The Drag DR-37 is a better choice for the Mustang (and the same design) than the DR-34.

I painted my stock wheels with some dupli-color graphite wheel paint. Love the contrast. The wheels and tires I have picked out are going to cost me about 3K and will come in gunmetal.
