The down side is that you need to keep your tyres dressed or clean - as they drag the look down, IMHO.

i would say better off with a really dark anth/slate colour so it doesn't show up the tyres, brake dust is also more visible on the black

I agree that you need to keep the tyres dressed to get the best from black wheels. Also you need to keep them pretty clan, mine go brown if I dont clean them often enough!!

Hi, My wheels are 18'' Kei Pulse and it's lowered on Whiteline flatout springs. It's not quite as low as I would like so I'll be changing to coilovers in the near future.
