Looking for ideas...

I have a 2011 c300, steel gray and am trying to figure out which wheel would look best on steel gray. I have always been partial to black wheels but am unsure if that would look good. Does anyone have a pic of a steel gray c3 with black rims or ever seen one??

Another round of ICE
Elaine and Joe have similar wheels to mine, with a grey tone in the spokes, but their car is steel grey...look for postings by OMGITSELAINE and check the sig photo. Meanwhile, here are mine on Palladium...

I think black wheels would look good, but only on an aggressive car. You doing anything else to it?

thanks guys for the input. I just got it about a week ago so im looking at what everyone else is doing before I make any decisions. I just came out of an Audi a4 that was allll blacked out. So I kinda like the black on black or darker colors.

Are there any must do's for the c300 that I might not be aware of?
