I'm definitely not a fan of the all-black, space saver spare look. There are exceptions, but maybe only 1 out of 10 cars looks good with all-black wheels. 9 out of 10 guys here on Pelican running all-black wheels on their 911s have cars that look cheap. Those seem to be the same guys who love the whale tail look on narrow-bodied cars. Doesn't always look bad, but there are only a few exceptions, IMO.
Even a silver rim barrel (anodized or polished) with black centers looks OK. All-black, not OK.
In general I'm not a fan of the color-matched centers, either. Too much red/white/yellow brightness in most applications. Sometimes it works, but other times it looks too 1980s Miami Vice. I think my car (Venetian Blue) is one exception to the no-color-matched-center guideline, though. Possibly because the Venetian Blue is not a blingy color. (That being said, I have RSR finished wheels right now.)
