I think the wheels look hot, I love the 2 tone look. I thought your batmobile analogy was awesome, whats wrong with looking like "batmobile"

They look OK but i would do the face in Brushed Alum or
leave the face black and chrome the lip.
I think on a black car should have some contrast.
I do like black wheels on lighter color cars tho.

I agree Tom, not enough contrast.. We'll see what happens.
