My Premium edition wheels are almost the same colour as the lip around the bottom 3" of the car... if yours are a match for that, then they are Premium wheels...
... or I have Black edition wheels?!

Looks darker than premium edition on the pics. By the way, looks like you don't need front parking sensors then!

Very hard to tell from those photos as you appear to have used flash for the first two?
The last one where you can see the car is more ambiguous. BTW, the Black Edition wheels are NOT black, they are a dark grey whereas the Premium ones are a dead match for Gun Metallic which is why I chose them for my Gun Metallic car.

They look like Black Edition to me also. The flash hasnt helped, and against the black paintwork they certainly look lighter.
Found these pics of a Premium edition, you can clearly see how much lighter they are against the bottom trim. Would of posted pic, but struggling to upload pics at the mo. Nissan GT-R R35 in Sweden

From what I recall, for the JDM release, there was the silver finish for the base trim, and there was the black finish for the Premium and the Black Edition.
You could opt for the black finish on the base trim as well, by getting the Bridgestone tyres. But I did recall for MY09, the black finish would be standard across base and Premium while the Black Edition would have a darker finish to the rims.. I have not seen those darker finish rims before so I can't say for sure. This might account for the differences in opinion here. Is yours a grey import or a UK official model?

Silver was deleted when the UK spec was updated - so I understand there's only dark and darker. My Premium has wheels of a very similar colour to these and I agree with the descriptoin of them being a close match to the colour of the bottom valance. Hope that helps.
Personally I would have liked silver wheels on my silver car, so if there's any wheel swapping going on.....
