For my two peneth, lighter colour wheels on darker cars, unless it's a metallic black, then gloss black looks good. Conversely, darker wheels on lighter cars. You choose, it's a very personal decision. As you can see from my rims...... Pics courtesy of drjphotos

I'm a fan of white wheels, no idea why? But over the past couple of days I have seen a black Fiesta with white multi-spoke wheels and I like it. The wheels, not the car!

White wheels on the right car look great. I have 17 inch white multispokes on wifeys white 500 and they look superb! I have gloss blach multispoke on my white Alfa GT,,and Anthracite plus alloys on my sprinty plus! All look lovely to me,,but wheels are a real personal taste thing.After looking at the Inky with inky wheels Id say thats the way to go! The light will catch them and show off the blueness but still look like a dark wheel? Nice one! Yup just had another look and Im convinced,,,colour coded Inkys are go!!!!!!

Nice shiny original Plus wheels for me. I can't think of any colour Coupe where I've thought white wheels look good - must be my age

Black or Anthracite gets my vote on an Inky Silver looks good but you need large fitment wheels to make it look right ie 18's etc whereas darker wheels you can get away with smaller sizes. White would look too much IMO on an inky bit tacky. I've just brought these for my Inky their Anthracite cannot fit them till I get home in a week or so but hoping they look the business also not 100% on my polished rim I might get the lip pulled off and resprayed anthracite too will see when fitted could be a squeeze though 18x8.5 with an array of PCD adapters I've brought ranging from et25 to et15 will post pics of my Antracite progress on the Inky when fitted will also have some plus wheels for sale soon

I've painted my maxiscooter a couple of months ago with plastidip (red) and it's been coping quite well with portuguese sun, I keep it in the garage when not crusing (as for the coupe)...I heard of people plastidiping the all car and retoching it 8 or 9 months after so it's a good life span regarding you only need 3 (4 tops) cans to apply 6 or 7 coats to each rim, which means you can paint it yourself, at home, for less then £40 and if you don't fancy the looks just peel it off and go back to the original colour just for show off purposes:
