I figured since I was replacing the wheels anyways, I’d get the black, but I’m torn. I love black wheels but I’m thinking maybe they wouldn’t quite look right. I just absolutely hate gray wheels, they look too plain. Maybe I’ll do a slightly darker gray or something… who knows.

How much would you really save by buying a whole other set of wheels though?

A set of tires is probably less than half the price of a decent set of wheels and tires last around 30k so figure the current set and two more sets, atleast 90k miles to make the cost of a smaller set of wheels worth it.
