Black 17x10.5 Wheels! Need your opinion.


I have a 03 Darkshadow grey convertible with a black top.
What do you guys think of using Black 17x10.5 bullitts on rear with stock Anthracite wheels on the front? The color wheel combination would be something you don't see everyday. I just don't know if its too ricey. Let me know what you think because I need some new tires quick. Thanks!

Stay with one color, What you have looks good, but black with a black top would look bad ass as well, just not mixed imo.

Thanks everyone for your response. It's seems to be unanimous. Stick to one color! I'll try to photo shop some pics, just to see how it looks.

one color. I would 'nt wear one black black shoe and a gray shoe.
I would stick with the stock wheels for a uniform gray on gray look.

Stage3 didn't have the wheels in stock. I finally was able to get the wheels from Americanmuscle. They are on the way! I decided to go with the 17x10.5 anthracites and sumitomo tires. Can't wait to get them!
