Question Black on Black?

I have a black 2dr. Accord Coupe EX and I am looking at rims for my ride. I like black racing rims but I am not sure how a black car with black rims would look. I've been on tirerack.com and used there generator thing but its hard to say how it will actually look. I've heard opposing opinions and I'm kinda stumped. Can anyone help me out?

are the rims flat black? or gunmetal/hyperblack-ish?

it could be the determining factor on whether it looks really really nice or just absolute crap.

This is a hard one. I've seen some cars all black w/ black rims that don't look to bad but IMO I think gunmetal would look better. But then again it depends on the rim design because some black rims when moving look like someone who just took off their hubcaps, which I think is horrible looking. Show pics of your final choice though then I could give a better opinion.

I was thinking about the same thing, black on black

Anybody got pics of different Hondas with black/gunmetal rims on black cars??

it depends on what the rest of the ride looks like. if you got tinted windows and tails then your gonna have a goth accord which just looks bad ass under my oppion. I'd be temped to go with gunmetal, but i think black would look just as nice.
