Personally, the only FRS/BRZ i see looking good with black wheels is white.

I saw an Ultramarine with black wheels and it looked a bit out of places.

Once you go black, you don't go back.

Nothing wrong with black! Just another color option. If every body had silver wheels somebody will make a new thread saying "what is with silver wheels?". We all have different tastes and that's what makes it interesting. If we all had the same opinion on colors it would get real boring fast. Maybe you see tons of black wheels because people actually like them! Just saying...

To each his own, if you like it that's all that matters. Myself, I didn't like back at first, especially on a Raven like I have. Then I ended with Hyper-Black, which was different than anything thing I had had on any other cars. I like them, not totally blacked out and not too much bling.

Also, seeing all the posts on the forum of people with black wheels on their cars, in most cases it looks good, not my thing, but I'll be honest and give props when it's due.

You guys with WRB are making the black wheels look good, really wish i had waited and got that color because you can put any color wheel on it.

For me it's all about the contrast or in some cases the lack of contrast (i.e. "Murdered Out")

I personally like black wheels on white. If I had Dark Gray, Black, or Silver, wheels would either be Silver or Gun metal. I hate red vehicles so thats out of the question. Blue, hard to say, most likely silver. Yellow, silver or gun metal. Green, silver or gun metal. Honestly it all depends on the car. My Clover Pearl green Integra had a set of silver wheels which looked great on the JDM clear corner lamps (Chrome housing) and Chrome housing headlights. It also had a set of Gun metal rims which broke up the color of the car greatly. The BRZ is honestly hard to find a good set of wheels, when you find a set, EVERYONE already has those wheels and it is hard to be a little different. So this is where playing with color comes into it. Some people go for the loud colors, me, I am going with Black on my SWP. Yes a ton of people have it but there are only so many options. Silver is a no go on white as stated before.
