Once you go black, you'll never go back.

Sorry but i hate black wheels.Might as well never clean them and let them get full of brake dust.

In my opinion you can not beat a clean,shiny silver wheel with the tyres dressed.

Despite my post above I actually agree with you 100%. I don't get why people like black wheels, you can't see any definition in the wheels and when I see them I just think back to black steel wheels with no hub caps

They look much better with a polished rim, but still not to my taste.

Each to their own though of course. I personally like silver/polished rims, and a light gold centre can be very nice too

yip i say go for the black centres on the wheels looks alot better IMO.

not a fan of those wheels in all honesty but they do look far better with the black centres

Igor · Post by **Igor** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 5:30 pm

those wheels came with the car. car really afford any atm. so i thought i'd just spruce these up

See, I meant a bit more subtle and lighter like this

JOHNM400 · Post by **JOHNM400** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 6:39 pm

If you really want to change colour id deffo go with the light gold. The black just looks so dull and dirty looking IMO. Shame to spoil nice shiny bright red paintwork by stick dull looking wheels on there.

Btw Igor, says in your profile they are 17", what profile are you running on the rears, looks more than 40, although obviously hard to tell from a pic?! The fronts look quite small?

Yeah, right!

I don't think so.
