Will changing the colour of my alloys make the car less valuable?

If I changed the colour of my alloys from black to colour match the 'brilliant blue metallic' of the car's paintwork, would this affect the resale price?

Yes – it'll probably make it more difficult to sell. Blue alloy wheels are an acquired taste and buyers tend to prefer standard cars.
