Hey so this Christmas i decided im getting new rims. Im torn between two colors and i have different opinions from everyone so i decided i would go with the experts and ask the crowd. So i have a Dark Slate coupe and im wondering what everyone thinks about the colors.

Gold is a very slippery slope, there are very few good instances I've seen, and certainly not on Dark Slate...seems to be OK on Subaru Blue but still not great

DAAN.

Are black and gold your only options? On Dark Slate (I presume that is what we call Niagara Grey in Canada?) I think black wheels get lost in the darkness of the whole theme (perfect on white, though!) and gold... well, no thanks. I like the contrast of polished/silver/chrome rims on the dark colours. JMO, of course.

Yeah I would agree I think both colors are way wrong for Dark Slate.

Based on that alone I would stay away from black.

I vote for Anthracite (dark grey) or Silver.
