Opinions about wheels

I was just curious if ASA AR1 black wheels would look good at all on our 07 MCS, it is hyper blue with white bonnet stripes...Any suggestions or opinions would be much appreciated...If they would look good, do I need to invest in black bonnet stripes or
Thanks
Travis

I thinl ASA AR1's are some of the best looking rims for a MINI, in silver or black. I bet they would look great on your car...

It would be nice if there were a gunmetal option!

Hey thanks for the pics and opinions but I was just curious how mine would look will those wheels but black. I do not think it would work cause we have white bonnet stripes, a white roof, and white side mirrors. ALmost seems like we need all those pieces in black to go with the wheels...Thanks anyhow guys

Go to the Tire Rack's website. They have a feature where you can "see" the potential wheels on your car.

Hey thanks for posting this. I wanted to see what my potential future wheels would look like. Had no idea they had this function!

I say no to the black. Silver is the way to go on your color combo. Or look into some white wheels!
