Wheel color

Wheels color has been one of the most difficult things for me to decide. I had couple of sets of black wheels which look nice but since my car is also black, black wheels kind of blend in with the car.
I just got new set of wheels in gloss gun metal color, so I've took a pic mid wheel replacement, new 20" Forgestar F14 Super Deep Concave gloss gun metal wheels on the front and 19" Forgestar F14 deep concave gloss black at the rear.

What do you think?

If you are deciding on the wheel color, I hope this pic will help you chose between the two colors.

I though of gun metal but went with black, but I like the gun metal just as much. I do agree to check your front tire clearance, site below shows tire size and offsets for all models.

I would definitely go with the gunmetal IMO, everyone has black wheels (me included) and it's starting to get played out... BUT WHO CARES! It's your car and as long as it makes you happy when you turn around and look at it as you walk away that's the right choice!
