As for wheels, again not a fan of black. I have a Black Sapphire Metallic car and have the standard 893M as my summer wheels and 898M winter wheels. I prefer my winters which are satin gunmetal.
I agree with the above, sell or wrap (ideally in an unavailable color).

Are you aware of the cost of a full wrap, I believe it is like 4K?

For wheels color and car color it is very dependent to your tastes, not sure how guys on a car forum that do not know you can help you.

I like black wheels but prefer dark grey with satin finish. Some hate black or dark wheels and some like those…
