Default Gunmetal grey ss wheels

How do you think these would look on a silver SS? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-Gu...62739241QQrdZ1

If they had polished lips, I bet they'd look great. However, all gun metal grey...they just look really dirty.

i like the one you found. i'd choose gunmetal over black but go with what you like best... go with something that someone else doesnt have...

first, monkey, your ss looks impressive. Makes me want to buy the gunmetals. Think I'm just going to pick up some cheap tires for the time being and throw the rest of the money into the lightning. I have been wanting to lower it more and I found a pretty good kit on ebay. It's just one of the wheels on the SS is eaten up pretty bad and these wheels are pretty cheap. Probably go for the chrome zr1's in the future.

I'm with him, I think they would look good on a silver car.

I agree, they would look good, why be like everyone else and get black or chrome...dare to be different!! I sold mine without ever putting them on the car....had to finish my motor build but wish I had kept them now.
