Niche Misano 20s, Silver or Gunmetal? Black E55

I have decided on the Niche Misano Wheels. 20x10 rear with +40 offset using 285-30-20 and 20x9 front with 32 offset using 255-35-20.

I have a Obsidian Black 2003 E55. Basically black if you haven't seen the color in person.

The wheels come in Silver with a machine finish and anthracite which is like gun metal gray.

What do you all say?

Thanks
Alex

Nice choice. I have a set of matte black Niche Misanos shipping out next week. I decided to go with 19"s since our roads suck around here.

Go dark and lower it to make that beast look sinister if you are modding
Keep her classy and tall with silver if you are a stocker

That would be how I would roll...

IMHO, machined silver for sure, especially on a black car. The "blackout" look is soooo overplayed.

Here's a pic for reference, even though they are different wheels:

They are indeed 20s. I ended up ordering the anthracite. Its really not black at all so I dont believe it will have the "blackout" looks which I agree is played out.

I guess we shall see. In the end I can always switch to something else latter.
