I like them both to be fair but think black looks more agressive especially as headlights are dark too

Black, I had white and they are a nightmare to keep clean in the winter.

Although if you want to sell them to me, that's fine.

Both!
I have anthracite set with winter tyres and white set for summer, nice to have the change of look every six months, and not to have white wheels to clean in winter! 😉

Thanks for all the opinions.

In the end though, i think i've decided on XXR 527's in Bronze or Gunmetal.

I know, it's been done to death, but really liking the look.
