I think that it's different but to any common eye they are going to think they are just dirty.

I saw a 6 series BMW yesterday with 22's that had a black dish with silver spokes. It was actually pretty hot!

I would just paint the lip "Silver Alloy" like your Z, or paint the spokes grey.

i honestly liked the way it is now moreso than the photoshops. I think the black lip w/ polished ring, or even w/out polished ring looks really good and different

i like the gun metal lip with the black wheels. However, it has to be matte finish on the black and gloss on the grey lip.

I think it would look better with the gloss black lip.

I'd say having the whole wheel gloss black would look great.
