Default TTM’s: Black vs. Anthracite – Opinions wanted

Time to order is here, come tomorrow or Monday. I think I have narrowed it down to 17 x 9 TTM’s all the way around. Can’t decide between black and anthracite (gray) though. The gray ones look awesome on a silver car; they’re a little bit off shade, but not too dark.
However, the black ones kind of remind me of a GTA throwback or GNX wheels and would go well with the top and the ceta bumper cover. But, most of the time I hate black wheels with polished lips and am afraid I will get sick of them fast or feel like I’ve made a mistake right when I get them.

Thoughts? Suggestions for any other 17’s?

I'm not sure i like the black wheels because you really cant tell what you have for brakes, and the wheel color blends with the tire, i chose Anthracite!!!

Either way looks good. I love black wheels on a silver car but those anthracite wheels are different and unique on a silver car. I vote for the Antracite!!

I'm not normally a fan of black wheels, but the silver ones just seem to blend in too much. In this case I think black would accent the car better.

Good call lol. I was going to suggest staying away from the TTM's on your car. Neither black or silver seems to suit your car right. C6's sound better.
