Need a little more info please. Year, make, model, mods, intended theme, etc.

Generally polished or brush/polish look great w black IMO. I'm presonally not a fan of black wheels on a black car (need some contrast like gunmetal or titanium), but it's your car so there's no wrong choice...

Black cars look good with black accents on the wheels. I did a polished spoke accent to tie in the chrome mirrors, trim, and bumper

2nd Gen 1970 Camaro, Carbon Fiber Theme, DSE Mini Tubs and Ridetech Level 2 Air Ride With 4 Link. I agree with you, no black on black, kinda why I am here. I like the Fesler Chevelle wheels, Boze Lateral G and Rushforth X Rated.
