Ive been back and forth on this for about a week on if i wanna go blacked out or not. But this is about the wheels, They are a set of powder-coated Black Boyd Smothies 18x10 in the rear 18x9 in the front with Toyo Rubber all around. If i do get them ima tint the tails, and paint the chrome window molding black.

So it comes down to A: Keep it how it is. OR B: Murder it out

Any input is appreciated whether it be good or bad.


Thanks,
Nick

I'm usually not a big fan of the murdered out look, but I think it will look good on the Impala. Only thing I would change is to have the hood painted to match the car.

I like the black look but it needs more color, maybe something as suddle as a pinstripe around the wheels just to set it off.

paint the hood with gloss tho.. i say either all flat or all gloss. that looks sinister tho. i think w/ the red bowtie and maybe red stripes on the wheels, a few small red accents.

+1..... I think he put it best... blacked out with red accents would set it off!!! Good luck with whatever you go with...

As a former 94 Caprice 9c1 and 96 Impala SS owner, I say go with the Boyds. 18s look really good on Impalas. You're more than likely going to have to roll the fenders for them if you already have not. I looks like you may have spacers/adapters for the rear? Man I love these cars. I still have dreams about mine lol. Very nice, good luck.

Black except for the corner lights. That looks weird to me for some reason.

Thanks for all the input everyone, all im worried about is buying the wheels, my hood, grill, and corner lights will be untouched.

Ive been back and forth back and forth about it. I just wanna step up from 17's.
