Will black wheels go out of style?

Still haven't seen alot of aftermarket wheels on the camaro's yet, but it seems as if most of the wheels that are chosen are black. I personally think that it looks good on some colors but not all. I may be the only one who thinks this way, but I'd like to see the details of the wheel I buy when they're $500 bucks a piece. Are they're any Camaro's out there with just a clean(not busy) polished wheel other than factory. Does anyone have the same opinion as me, or am I alone. I'd hate to drop 2 or 3 grand on a set of wheels, and next year you can't give black ones away.

dont like just black wheels. i like the look of color matching wheels. i got black because my car is black. if i had waited for the white you damn well know i would have some white with a polished lip. i dont like black wheels on EVERY color though.
