Wheels, yay or nay?

I've been toying with the idea of putting some anthracite GSI rims on my daily driver for a while, as I get sick of having to clean brake dust off the silver rims all the time! However, with the car already being grey, I'm not sure how it would look.

I think you need to go a touch darker, too light a shade and it tends to look like you've not cleaned your wheels rather than deliberate colour choice, other than that it looks good, they do look about 16" thou
