To be honest, I do agree that with black cars, you can lose the lovely lines.....

That said, something about black......

I had a choice, and went for black.

Great when clean (pics attached) but dirty after 1 shower......

ps love the black rims someone else posted, but know not to everyone"s taste....

I had a black Cavalier Diplomat and tbh I loved that car because it made me feel all Rockatansky about it

I have 20 inch wheels on my S90 inscription.

Nice wheels, but too big and a nightmare to clean.

I've been looking for 18 inch for comfort for ages, but don't want to spend much

You'll regret it, I have 18's and they aren't an easy clean either and more spokes, you may gain a smoother ride but the image quality the 20's give the car finishes the car,

Have a look on youtube for the dude with the 22's on his burgundy S90, blonde, xenium full length roof the car just looks so good.
