> [@91MR2](#): > > I hate black wheels. Make them anything but black. +2 I’m not a big fan of the current trend of “make everything montone.” IMO, all black wheels on a black car make it look ghetto. pretty sure I’m not alone on thinking they look low-rent. how many maufacturer show-vehicles (which are made to make a splash, and cost, oh, say thirty-thousand times what just about everybodies’ rides here do, N/O) are made black, on a dark finish? hmmm? when in doubt, go with what looks elegant. don’t ride the popular wave. little bit of shine never hurt nobody. :tup: contrast can make or break a car, especially the wheels. ---

Both colors look good. The only problem with the gunmetal is its too close to the factory liquid grey color of the s2. I say go with black.
