Depends on the color of the car. Personally, I like contrast...if the car is a dark color already, going with dark rims just makes the car plain, IMO.

Gun metal if you want a bit of both. I would go black. Had matte black with my black M3 before and looked really good. I'd do it again

Carrara white C2S. Sometimes whenni look at black rims it looks cool sometimes it looks out of place.

Eww!

If you want to go with a sporty and aggressive look then go with black.

If you want a classy and classic look go with brush. Can't really go wrong unless you go with chrome.

It's not the first time that my options upset people on this forum.

Ynot and NorthVan - Avoid looking look at the attached pic. It might make you ill.

just saw an orange hue 997 with black wheels with yellow pinstipe on the wheels....that caught my eye. it seems that there are so many sports cars doing black wheels. is it just a trend that will fade or this is the look of the decade.

On my Basalt Black GTS I went with Forgeline GA3s in matte gunmetal centers with polished lips. I like them much better than the stock all black CLs
