Black Racing wheels on silverstone

I'm considering Black Racing PRO N1 wheels on my silverstone Z. The color would be flat black. Can anyone photochop this for me? Thanks.

My two cents...

Black wheels look dumb, on almost any color car.

Gunmetal is the darkest that I would go, and that's only if they matched the car. They might clash with a silverstone.

I'd love to find some black wheels that looked cool that way I wouldn't have to obsess about getting the brake dust off everytime I get home from a drive.

Just my opinion - not good. Much better options out there.

I'd have to agree. I don't like black on anything other than white ...and usually only goes for race-only cars.

Black could be cool, but you must have a stainless steel lip (not painted) To avoid the "I-did-this myself look!"

I don't think either the black racing or the evo wheels come in the correct offset for the Z

Yeah, it's Vlad. I PM'd him about a week ago asking for some more pictures of his car with those wheels, and the specifics about the rims and tires. Never heard back from him unfortunately.

The Black Racing Pro N1s do. You can get an 18x9 +30 all of the way around which leaves plenty of tuck for a drop. At +30, the N1s in 18x9 will still move out an additional 13MM from the stock 18x8 +30.
