I haven't checked, but I'd guess anyone who would want these would be one of those people who go around wearing baggy pants with their underwear showing.
(edit- truly don't mean anny offense...just thought I'd post this to get even with Gold wheel haters )

i have gunmetal wheels and love em. I don't like the "BLING BLING" crome look at all. it's too rice.
the dark colored wheels comes for GT race cars. And i like to think of my car as a "race car" and not a "cruiser"
long live dark wheels

Hey, dark wheels are cool... I have anthracite but I also like the dark bronze ones too, though I'm not much of a fan of the straight black wheels. Black looks ok on some Subies but not all.

OK I confess... I actually like gunmetal alot. I can understand the appreciation for gold-on-white, but I'm not a fan of it. Gunmetal on white would probably look OK, but not great. My favorite color combo though, is the WRB with volk gunmetal. crap-my-pants. But hey, everyone has WRB or silver. So I have white on white (on white....boy)

the understated oem rims look good, IMO. te37's and ssr's are nice too....

I have gunmetal becuase 1) they are P1's and the P1 car in Britian came with gunmetal rims, and 2) I am too lazy to clean my wheels all the time so it hides dust really well. But soon I will switch for gold or bronze.

jason, i always think your car looks like an RC with your white rims, cuz all of my friends' rc's have those white rims that you buy unpainted and they never bothered to paint them =P
