Graphite looks okay, black looks kind of "ghetto" in my opinion on stockers. Graphite is just a darker shade of silver, and looks like a nicer OEM color to me.

+1... Do not can spray your wheels please.. I know a place around South city in which you can get high quality paint for cheap(all supplies needed as well). Gluck with whatever you decide...
