depends on personel preference..

but I always prefer silver color tones on alloys..

silver color dont show the dirt & scratches like black..

Think I have mentioned this before but will mention it again.

Whilst at traffic lights on a T junction, a scabby old cavalier with black steel wheels and no hub caps goes past, I don't take much notice. Then a few cars later a Japanese hot hatch/boy racer goes past with black alloys. Well seeing the 2 so close together really put me off black alloys, as it can almost look like doggy old steel wheels.

Just something to think about.

i think a gun metal grey alloy looks great on a silver car...black would be too much of a contrast IMO  :D

Black with mirror polished rims looks real nice, but a nightmare to keep on top of.

  I must agree with Mike on this one, will look the Dogs danglies as you put it but only whilst standing still so great for posing ;).
