Considering a set of Volk G25s...

As the title mentioned I'm seriously considering a set of the Volk G25s for my C63. I had a set of Rays/Volks on my M3 that I loved and these look like a fantastic option... question is colour for a Magnetite black metallic car (pictured). Keep in mind I've since tinted my car and put on a set of smoked reflectors.

While I'm not a fan of the murdered out/all black look I think with the darker (almost black) finish and diamond cut lip it could look great on my car... was previously leaning towards the Mercury Silver but now I'm a bit torn. Feel free to talk me into/out of each option.

Mercury Silver is a fantastic colour in person. It shines like no other silver wheels i've seen. It doesn't look polished but the flakes in the paint is awesome. Can't go wrong with either choice though.

Mercury Silver without a doubt IMO. It will look amazing on your car.

Hahah, nice. Post more pics of your car so I can check them out!

I'm still undecided at this point, there is no supply on the Mercury Silver so it would be 8+ weeks to bring them in from Japan. I'm also looking at a set of HREs but not sure I can stomach the price.
