With our rare Twilight Blue G35s painting the rims black will make them disappear which does nothing for the appearance of your ride. Save your $$ when you can afford it buy some cool highly polished rims which will work extremely well with your coupe's color...."Black rims"

Gunmetal would be the absolute darkest color wheels I would put on my car. As Gary said, anything darker just wont match up well.

My opinion:

White car + black wheels = sexy

Blue car + black wheels = not sexy at all.

Leave them the silver color, you need some contrast.

Bronze or gold would look amazing since it sticks out. Dont do black cause it'll disappear in pictures.

It wouldn't look good on Lakeshore Slate. We probably have the hardest OEM color to match with wheels. It seems like silver/chrome is really the only option that works, and only certain rims in chrome fit that bill. They must be a simple design, and not too "busy"

I've had gold wheels on my TB coupe for 5 years now. Wouldn't change it for any other color.
