Black Wheels or not?
« on: July 07, 2011, 11:42:01 pm »
The wife wagon is needing the wheels refurbed and im pondering doing them black like this one (not actual car but pretty much identical execpt her wheels are the 17" in the same style)



This is what it currently looks like (not actual car)



Thoughts?

It's a no from me. I like black wheels (I have black Huffs on my car) but I don't think they suit that car.

Shadow chrome could look very nice though...

I put black wheels on my silver car but didn't like the look very much. To get away with black on silver you need lots of other black bits of detailing IMHO.

Go for a dark grey metallic.  :smiley:

I'm old school. Black wheels scream brake dust to me and therefore dirty.

I am a 46 year old codger mind you  :laugh:
