Hi folks<br /><br />I have black wheels against white paintwork & I reckon they make the car look better & perhaps a bit more sporty (it is a sports car after all!). From a practical point of view, black is much easier to keep in good condition. If you don't suffer from the obvious kerb damage the wheels will still get the odd stone chip & unless you're happy to have them repaired & resprayed each time it's relatively simple to use a five pound touch up pen to get rid of the unsightly blemishes. As silver is available in so many shades it's often hard to get an exact match and it's usually necessary to feather the repair area which will be very obvious on a silver wheel if the shade isn't a perfect match. Conversely, black has much fewer shades & the eye doesn't detect differences so easily. If of course you opt for the diamond cut wheel finishes, while they look great, they are much more difficult to repair & any chip or damage will look awful & make you feel embarrassed & want to cry! They can only be properly repaired by re-milling & re-lacquering.<br /><br />Decisions, decisions...
