It's all personal preference really. Black wheels on black cars are pretty much a love it or hate it thing. I personally prefer silver wheels on black cars because they have that nice contrast. But if you're looking to make the car more aggressive black would work just fine. Let us know if you need a quote for wheels.

+1 for personal preference, either black out or to have more contrast. and with 19s, they look great and big enough if there is no lip. if the wheels would have a lip, I would personally suggest getting 20s.

I think the big issue is the quality of the roads that you run on. As a fellow Vancouverite who is running 20's, if I could have a do-over I probably would have opted for 19's. In fact your 19's look pretty good to me.

Okay points all taken, maybe out of all of this I should just put some different springs on the car and do some window tinting...

We sure did and still do. He's really not too thrilled about my new car either. And with my new wheels on the verge of showing up and changing the complete look of the car, he's even more pissed now! Hahaha!
Whats with that Lambo in his garage though?!?!?!?!
