I wanted to throw this out for opinions.I've got a '01 Spyder that is silver.All the plastic is off and ready to be painted.Scheme #1 is silver car,silver rims and all plastic is jet black.Or Scheme #2 is silver car,gunmetal rims and all plastic in gunmetal.Thanks for any opinions.Yea,my avitar is what the rim will look like just not black.

Scheme #1 would look good, jet-black plastic tends to make the car look shiny & new and I've always been a sucker for silver wheels (black wheels on silver paint make the car look dirty or unfinished like it's on steelies).

Black rims just doesnt do it for me.I was thinking gunmetal trim on silver would just blend in instead of standing out.

I like black wheels on many cars but not on silver. I tried it on mine which is silver as well and I didn't care for the look.
