Are these wheels too much

Im thinking of switching from the grey wheels to black
they are 21" and Im thinking black on black may be too much?

Black is here
Grey is Here

Black on Black always works!

That german X5 looks tough, if it was tailgating me i think i might speed up to not stop its progress!

Just get the blacked out grill to match. Make yours the Germans long lost brother... Copy it you cant go wrong.

I would of never thought an x3 could look that wicked. I am eating my words. Those wheels look sweet. If you have the mollah I'd go for it!

It now makes an even better alternative to the Cayane. I hope to see one in the streets soon.

The only Cayenne worth looking at is the Trubo, the new GTS is not bad, but IMHO I thought thedrive of the X5 4.8i was the best of the lot.
I drove the;

Range Rover Sport V8
(sloppy, rolly polly, cusy wushy)

Cayenne S, GTS & turbo
(turbo rocked, but $ not justified - and its ugly)

Merc ML63
(brakes, are there any brakes and why is it so nervous?)

BMW 3.0dsi
(Whoah, is this really a diesel? Holy crap)

Audi Q7 4.2 fsi-
(seriously, does it come with comfortable seats and are you sure Im not towing something?)

When it came down to pure driving pleasure, power right through the band, dynamics, road hanlding, finish, styling and equipment - the X5 topped them all.

But this is probably no surprise to most that have been reading the reviews of these larger soft roaders - the X5 tops the list nearly every time.

21" is too much IMO.

remember, its a truck, so 21"'s are fine for size, 22"s are better (IMO), I was asking whether the black on black was too much - but - I have bought the Ferric Grey ones, so its a redundant question now

I will post some pics later today, they look hot!!!!

Nice results
I vote for black wheels
