Black wheels regrets?

[Mzik]

Hi, I am about to trade in my 330 for an X6 and am going for space grey with black alloys (I think)!  Only ever had silver alloys and interested to know if anyone with black regrets it now.  Do they mark easier?  Any other reason?  Thanks everyone...am choosing tomorrow!

I've black alloys in my MINI and on our X5. If. It washed carefully they show scratches (dark pigments are softer), they show kerb damage more (due to the contrast with the silver underneath), and they show dirt quicker. However, on the right colour car (both mine are white) they still look better than standard, and in my opinion are worth it.

Here is a pic of mine, no regrets I think it looks great with black rims and no issues with keeping them clean either
