Default Grey Cars, Black Alloys

Yay or Nay?

Not sure how it would look tbh, basically i've got a dark grey Seat Ibiza Sport I use as a daily and I fancy upgrading my alloys to the larger 17"type and possible getting them in black.

Anybody any pictures of dark grey cars with black alloys as inspiration? And any comments?

Also, if anybody could do a photoshop and give my current wheels a dose of black, that would be appreciated...



Cheers,

John

Not a complete piccie, but if you search under tabethas new wheels, you will see my black alloys fitted to my mercury grey sapphy, might give you a better idea.

18" MO's on my old Grey GT4:




I'd do it on your Seat, along with a decent drop it'll look good.


Cheers,

Cheers folks, pictures are really swaying me towards it

Grant - drop most definitely on the cards regardless, one thing I hate about these cars is how high they sit as standard - mines the 'Sport' spec with 16 inch alloys and tbh they could have given it a bit of a drop to distinguish it. Its the only thing that let's the car down tbh
