Black rims on Black CAR????? Y OR N?

I got a Nighthawk Black Pearl 01 Civic EX, and i want to buy rims soon, and I was thinking of getting either black wheels or gun-metal. Anybody fans of these kinds of wheels? I think its pimp when its all blacked out, and does any1 have any pics with any 2k1 civic's with black rims?? And does any1 have any suggestion on what of wheels to get?

as long as they are big and have some shine to them, that way people won't mistake them for stock spare tire rims when you drive buy

Well if you want to look like a racer and not a ricer I'd say that black rims are cool... but I'd rather have silver or maybe even white ones on my car

I personally would'nt go that way, but since you like go for it. Remember, it's your car, put on what makes you happy.

I say no because the gun metal should match the paint of the car exactly... you can paint them or...

You can take a look at htown's rims and see what I like.

Not unless there is some contrasting color on the rims. For instance a polished lip or center cap, or something so it doesn't have that dirty/brake dust look...
