I feel really outnumbered, but I think they look pretty coll, especially with the side stripes. I guess Im partial to the black because I am very close to getting mine painted black.
I must agree, but i would consider powder coat black if you can find it affordable. Your stripes combined with other combined black accents like a chin spioler, black rear spoiler, black hood scoop could add alot of attractive contrast.

Maybe if the rim lips were unpainted, kept silver? The solid black doesn't give any contrast to lower part of car. I like black rims but they can make a car seem "heavy".

But as its been said before. "it all comes down to what you like"

It takes the focus away from the car

I know that's kinda like the latest trend, having all-black wheels, but I don't care for that PS pic!
How about with just the "spokes" painted black and the rims still polished? Gotta a pic for us?

Yes, but leave the center caps silver to bring it back in matching with your car.
