Look good on a black car, the quest for handling is all about reducing the unsprung weight which is why Race/Rally cars normally have wheels made from a Magnesium Alloy very light, very expensive and very easily damaged! If you are after looks then I "dare" say they won't weigh much more then a set of "S" Spokes tbh.
