Yeah I'm kinda bored of it since everyone has it. I scuffed up my rear rims something serious so going for a unique look.

So is Ferric Gray darker than Gunmetal? It looks that way to me.

I didn't vote because Ferric Gray wasn't an option.

Yeah I think the worst thing you can do to a black vehicle is put black/dark wheels on it, and I agree it's played out, there is a such thing as too much black, and as I like to say, "contrast is a good thing".

There is still contrast with the dark grey wheels. I think it stands out in the crowd because it's not the status quo. Almost every car has silver or chrome wheels. Personally I am in love with the way the Ferric Gray looks on the vehicle. Everyone I have showed that pic to agrees as well, except my dad but he is an old school dude.

Personally, I am not a fan of black wheels on a black car, but they may look OK on lighter colors... My preferance would be the Ferric Gray on a Black Vehicle.
I understand the whole "Murdered out" look, but it's not for me. A simple Black grille and 35% tint makes the car look a little meaner without going overboard. This X5 looks pretty sweet; YouTube - Bumer 2 - Skorast ...Ya, I may do the Ferric Gray wheels at some point...
