one thing you must understand with black wheels, if the visible undercarrage is not PERFECTLY CLEAN and meticulously dressed all the time, they look like crap. The will almost certainly will under headlights at night. Stay with gunmetal. The dark greys will make even semi-clean wheel wells look 'black' in comparisson. The (imitation) FR500's are beautiful, strong wheels for the money, and not insanely difficult to clean.
Just found a problem with the FR500's.
+24mm offset.
And those are the ones I was really leaning towards.
I'll keep your advice in mind. Especially since there are a lot of Gunmetal wheels out there.

they will make updated versions in the futrue I'm sure. Dont use the current selection available only 15 days since the official introduction as the wheel selection that is 'out there'. I wouldnt bother buying any dressups untill the car is fully underway by spring and the aftermarket begins to catch up.

Frog painted his stock upgrade wheels black. Looks pretty good, IMO.

Talk about a flashback. When I started this thread I had just ordered my car. (11/8/04) The car arrived 4 months later, but it took even longer to get the FR500 wheels I wanted.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Nagman.
