Looked nice before but looks even nicer now. Would be interested to see if black mirror covers would finish it off, maybe someone could photoshop them to check.

Personally I prefer the silver wheels in design and colour. But I am in the minority currently.

I prefer anthracite wheels.

If sticking with black, I'd be tempted to add the black arch protectors and a few more black bits to match.

Just think you lose the details on black wheels though.

Exige wheels on an Elise never look right to me.

Your original wheels are so much better. Could you not have had those recoated?

The original wheels are superb in my eyes. The black replacements are perhaps more striking, more 'in yer face' but also perhaps a little too 'fashion'. I wouldn't hesitate to buy either version but wouldn't personally contemplate the expense to make the switch from the original wheels or vice versa. This having been said, I think the change is even more striking on solid paint cars, in particular solar yellow. Either way the car looks great to me.

I prefer the design of the original wheels, but the colour of the new ones - I've never liked silver alloys (or indeed silver highlights of any kind) on modern cars.

I like your original wheels because they're almost the exact same colour as your car.
