Hey, I'm a fan of chrome...

However, black/dark chrome would be awesome with SGM!

what kind of wheels are you thinking of? I would say go for a "light" black almost to a gunmetal. But not something like Hyper black of Diamond black.

I also have an SGM and I think gunmetal is perfect like the ones in the G-Spider.

My first choice would be, brushed finished centers with polished lips. My 2nd choice would be a gunmetal/anthracite center with polished lips (for a racier look)

How about flat black?

It is all up to you really, it's your car, you're driving it, you're going to be the one showing them off. Whatever rocks your boat.

"No chrome on the wheels, I'm a grown-up for real."

Get gunmetal.
