My .02... No..

I'm not a big fan of Black rims though, I don't like the way they look at all, no matter what car I have seen them on..

But it's all about what you like, not me.. to me the black rims just blend into the tires too much and it doesn't look "clean" you can say...

I'm not a big fan of BLING BLING either, (well not on small cars anyways), I think the silver metallic color that you got now look good...

Again, it's your decision, if that's what you like, go for it. Don't let "US" make you choices...

Again, my .02 cents worth..

Lets see.........your bumpers and wing are already black, so getting black wheels will just add to your color scheme. IMO it will look pretty nice. The wheels and a nice tint and you'll be all set

I myself hate black rims. As the man said, they look too much like stealies.

I like some of the black ones, if you highlight so it doesn't look like a steelie

But I don't know if it'd go with your blue

Black rims with a silver lip do look much better then just black.

Why don't you try to Photoshop a few different sets of wheels on your car? It will give you a pretty decent idea of how it'll look.
