    Wheel - Color

    I'm forward thinking to the next set of tires and that thought expands to wheels. My ZHP is a silver gray metallic vert and I am struggling with wheel "color" - chrome, silver, or black. Silver (like the stock wheels) blends in too much with the paint color, so I'm leaning away from the color. So....throw this one out to the forum. Chrome or black? I look forward to the feedback.

    No chrome. Period. Only polished lips.

    I'd go with a charcoal color or a hyper silver.

    Wheels should always have some contrast to the vehicle color to make them stand out IMHO.
