Keep them like that. It's almost unique to roll the polished look now. That and it looks killer and classy.

Black on black is nice but it does get a bit boring....
Are all of you saying my car doesnt look good black onblack? here are some pictures! lol

thats messed up but yes i'l go with everyone else, if you black out you really gotta black everything... out keep your finish it gives the wheel some definition with all the design my wheels arent that crazy and are powdercoated centers

Id argue all day that all black wheels dont look ugly but it depends on the type of wheel and what color car its going on. But I am biased with 2 sets of P40's on a red and white car.

In this case, do what most are saying and keep them all silver. Best look and contrast imho.

These the same ones that were in the classifieds? I was hesitant to buy them cause of the CLS offset but they look amazing on your car.
