Black wheels look awesome on black cars..... remember the Mad Max Interceptor? ON white.... I think it unbalances the tough look of the 4.8.

As has already been said, if you like it, that's good enough for us.

I'm sorry, but I have to agree with most of the other replies here. I don't like the way they look. Having said that, YOU like them, and that's what matters.

One possible down side to all this is if ever you decide to sell the X it might reduce your resale value than what it would be with factory look wheels.

Did you do the spare also?

He can still paint it black though to complete the match.

I'd have to agree with not liking it. Sorry, I don't want to be offensive either, but I actually like white wheels on white cars. The black makes it look too much like a spare...sorry, not trying to be offensive.

Sorry, but I don't like the way it looks. Maybe you can return them. Where di' Dubai it?

Seriously, it looks kind of feminine. Do you have a sister who could drive it?

No offense but It looks bad. That is just my opinion and if you like it that is all that counts.
