Black 4.8 E70 w/ Black Wheels?

Has anyone put black wheels on their black E70? If so can you post some pics? I like the look on certain cars (Range Rover, E Class Merc, 7 series). I had kicked around the idea of doing it on my E53 but it didn't look right in my opinion.

yeah man, black wheels is in now. The chrome wheels and those wack spinners is pretty much fading out. Those pics jimsaq posted is actually my set-up I pic it up thursday, they are installing the aero kit. I will admit it takes a little time to get use to seeing because you are use to the chrome or silver alloys.

Some black rims look good with the e70, but most look ugly.
you can try the bmw black 215s (i think) my friend has a black e70 and fixed black 215s and the car looks good

Boils down to individual taste. Not a fan myself. Too much black. I like to see some contrast: black on white, or white on black. But I guess some folks like it. Look at Jagr on the Rangers, he's got the black skate boot and the black blade holder. Just about everyone else has the standard white blade. (Pardon the hockey analogy, big fan )

I think it looks great.
I was thinking of painting my 20s on my 06 4.8is black. It would looks even better with a Brembo BBK!!!!
