Default Super Rozza vs. LE28n

Currently I have a black Z with 19x9 +25 front, 19x10 +25 rear PIAA super rozza's in silver. I have been thinking about updating my wheel situation and I recently came across a good deal on some LE28n's in gloss black, 19x8.5 +22 front and 19x10.5 +22 rear. I am torn on what to do so while I know my opinion is the only one that really counts (to save davidv from having to post here ), I'm still open to other opinions / suggestions, i.e. should I stick with what I have or jump on these Volks. The top photo is my current setup, and the other is my crude photoshop attempt at what it might look like with the le28's. Note that I have standard (non-brembo) brakes so don't let the photochop mislead you.

One of my main concerns is whether there will be major contrast between the gloss black and my magnetic black (metallic flake) paint.

Looking forward to hearing some opinions...

I say go for it, you won't be able to tell the difference in terms of color.

The LE's with the gloss black looks great on your Z.

I say get the Volks so members that dont have them can accuse you of being a fanboy. Not to mention they look pretty good!

I think the volks would look much better on your car.

Well I pulled the trigger on the LE's. Should be getting them within the next week or so, then I gotta find tires and a place to mount them. I'll post pics once the new setup is installed.

I've owned both, and they both look great. Honestly you can't go wrong either way.

Well folks I've been whoring these pictures around my350z all night haha, but now lets see how everyone votes based on the real pictures!

Before (PIAA):



After (Volk):




My thoughts: So far, I'm not convinced : ( But it's only been a few hours and maybe it will grow on me. I think some tire shine on the tires will do a lot too. The tires are brand new and kind of that grayish/black, which seems to be breaking up the blacked out effect to me. Curious to hear everyone's opinions.
