Gunmetal rims.
Everyone does have black rims. I just got some recently. But now I want a different color, 'cause I see a lot of black rims now.

Gee, I don't know. Gloss black FTW for me. GM looks kinda faded or like the paint was defective or something. But ****, man that just my two-bit opinion. Go with what you want. Usually I ask chicks what they think - not guys. If they think your ride is hot you might get laid!

IMO, with your car color, I'd go with the black. The GM's wouldn't have much contrast.

all black without a polished lip. the polished lip makes the black rim look smaller.

ive been pondering the same for a SSM and i think i'm going to go with a silver rim.
