    Personally if you go with black, only paint the spokes/centre section of the wheel and leave the outer rim silver or even better polished as this will break up the black wheel from the tyre and not look to over powering. I have this on mine even though not standard alloys you can see the effect. As previously stated it is down to personal preference.

    IMHO lee, i dont think your 16s can carry off the black and polished rim look.
    the rim will enhance their small size but full black will mask them and look bigger.
    the TSWs on my alfa were only 16s but looked huge.

    Ive found a T5 the same colour as mine and the overall look, with black wheels is pretty smart.

    Think i'll do mine exactly the same as this

    Me personally I'd go for anthracite. I don't think black suits the Columba's very well, not in that pic above anyway.

    I quite like the look of that car with the black wheels ( Maybe with red calipers behind ) along with the windows they make it look quite mean but not flash

    Instead of whitewall tyres, paint a 1 inch silver line around the tyre where it
    meets the rim so it looks like your running 17's lol
