New wheels; black on black or silver on black?

New wheels; Black on Black or stick to silver?

I'm replacing my wheels on my black 07 TDV8. I'm planning to fit a black gloss 2010 upgrade grille and black gloss lettering however I cant make up my mind between silver 22" Stormers or black gloss. The wheels will be fitted with 275/40"22 AT tyres for a more rugged look.

I'm a bit worried I'd end up with a mafia version and 4 "black holes" around the car vs 4 aggressive wheels that sparks and stand out.

What's your opinion? images for reference and debate purpose.

Is the rest of the car all black ?

IMHO the silver wheels need something to tie to - grilles, lettering etc.

Silver for me. Black on Black on Black reminds me of a D dealers car.

Yes, it will be very similar to the 2010 version used as a reference picture. Same style of black gloss grill and black gloss lettering. It's a very tidy car and I'd like to keep it clean and not over the top. Tinted windows from the passenger seats and back. I'd think the 275/40/

No offence taken. An honest opinion is what I'm looking for. It's my first black car for ages. I think black wheels on a dark grey car (as my Defender) looks bad ass but on a black car...hm, it can goes two ways. One of them might be a shift in career Very Happy

Are they your only options? I’d go with something darker but classy, like the shadow chrome on the E39 M5..... though I appreciate that’s not what you asked....

Agree. Looks great and blends well in. Unfortunately my only option in this case is either black gloss or silver 22" Stormer.

I want to say silver, but if the rest of the car is blacked out, I’ve a feeling black would suit it better..... as there is nothing to tie the silver to.

Hm...Now that’s what I’m thinking about and normally follow. If I keep the silverish lettering and the black gloss silver side vents there’s at least a few elements. Silver wheels might “pop out” very well towards all other all black elements and the silver in the side vents. Got to land my descion by tomorrow 😅
