Black or Silver Rims?

I got black rims on my car when I got it. But they are 20’s, and I’m thinking I want either 21’s or 22’s.

But what will look better, all black or all silver?

I agree. The silver lip makes the rim look smaller.

Car looks really great in matte black with black rims, but if you want my silver 21s I will give them to you.

Do you have rear wheel steering? Especially 10 deg. If so, the 10 deg is limited to 20's.

Your car looks great as it is, but might look better without the silver. With your matte finish, you have a stealth look, so black seems appropriate.

I keep going back and forth. I think the black rims will keep it more stealth looking. But then I think changing them to silver, it would class it up a little and the rims would stand out a lot more.

personally on a matte black car black wheels look better, but it also depends greatly on the wheels itself, how many spokes ect

Why not powdercoat the silver lip to black? Might make the wheel look a little bigger
