I recently traded my stock wheels for these straight across and looking for opinions.

I would leave them be, or maybe get them powdercoated a dark gunmetal if it goes with the paint, black wheels are a bit overdone, at least thats my .02, and I just sold my silver Matrix that had black wheels off a Scion Tc

Thanks for the input. the tires are 225/40/18 so they're a bit smaller.

Keep it as it is. +1 for lowering the car though.
