I Want to upgrade wheels to SVE SP2's on my 18GT Black appearance package car. I'm not sure those wheels look right in Black. Considering Graphite Gray. My car is Kona Blue, and will be getting satin black stripes with 1/4" silver stripes.

I voted black because you've got a Black Accent Pack, I don't like mixing in extra colors unless it is really just an accent at that point. You've got the gloss black roof, spoiler, and 5.0 so I'd say gloss instead of satin on your stripe as well.

Yeah I think for color harmony I'd vote black with the badges and such. Otherwise with kona being darker I'd go graphite.

If I went gloss black with the stripes, I wouldn't have to install the roof stripes. But I already have the stripes. I now have matte black grilles too.

Kona looks best with graphite IMO. But I am biased.

Kind of funny, this poll has been neck to neck since it was 3/3. Probably why I haven't decided yet.

Either way it will look good.

Neck and neck in the poll maybe, but two of the people that voted graphite commented black as well which puts it at 13 to 7 right now.

Guilty. I do prefer the graphite despite what I said.

If it wasn't for the black already on the car, I'd say graphite as well. They look good in all the colors and since Kona is a darker blue already, it'd help to lighten things up and show off the design a lot.

That's one of the big reasons I keep thinking graphite. I think black wheels will lose some of the visual design. In a way I'm glad you guys are split, as I am 50/50 with this myself.

Price in the cart just went down by 9.62%, I just need to pick a damn color! I think graphite color looks better on this design, but black will match my other black accents.
