Default Which to get, gunmetal or black

How in the hell do you do a poll? I see "add a poll" at the bottom but it does nothing.

I am getting these probably withing the next week or two, which one would look better on a BSP....not what you would get on your car but if you had a BSP what would you get?

Black


Gunmetal (they look more grey in person)

I've got a BSP and am thinking about the same question. I'm tempted to say gunmetal, but I'd want to see them on the car first. Or at least next to the car. If the gunmetal is too grey, then go black.

Get the black ones even though many people have the same combo but it looks more clean.

May look cleaner but will resemble a lot of other cars that have the blk/blk combo. If you want a richer gunmetal/grey, go with anthracite...

A lot of people said anthracite wouldn't go with my SSM. After they saw the rims on they totally changed their minds. They liked it and said the color was unique. I guess it boils down to how you think; think conservative, go black.-think differently and outside the norm, go gunmetal.

I have a BSP tC and was thinking of black wheels, but I am a little old school and still not sure I am sold on that whole thing. I think it looks good, but SO many people are doing it, I think I am going with something that is silver or clear coated aluminum. Just my 2 cents...
