Black wheels on a V8 Vantage
Discussion
Stratsone Cardiff are doing a V8 kit called One-17. What is interesting are the black power coated standard 7 spoke wheels. Also they do black wing mirror housings (like) and a black grill (OK) + you can have the revised N400 sills (don't like). You can have any bit separately having already had a chat with them. Question is what do people think to the black wheels? The alternative is to do a gloss smoked finish like the new Nissan GTR wheels? My car is in Tungsten as per the car in the pics below.
Thoughts welcome.
MADT350 obviously you know where I'm going with this.

i have just bought some original anthracite 7 spoke versions (my car is Tungsten silver also) and getting them fitted on my car tomorrow, i just fancied a change as every vantage has silver alloys, i do like to be a little different 
. it does make the vantage look more aggressive which i quite like....if black is not a option then a anthracite could be?

i have a black car, and with black wheels its just too black 
When I was buying it from the dealer I had them finish the wheels in matt anthracite for me - the brake dust sticks less, much easier to clean and always look clean - perfect for the lazy car cleaner

i will try to get some better shots this weekend...the car seemed to get even more looks on the way back from the garage with a few positive gestures especially from a nice blond...
