Default 10 spokes with lip or all blk (come look at photoshop)

i really can't decide what to do. i was going to to paint them all black, but ever since a photoshop (thanks to 98 WS6), the lip looks sweet. what do you all think?

yea i agree. its going to be a royal pain in the butt but it will be worth it when im done. do you guys think i should paint the inside of the wheel black or leave it silver, so just the spokes are black? i'd like to do that black so it hides the dirt but don't know how it will look

No black gets my vote. If you have to do black I'd do them like the 35th anniversary rims. Done already I know, but IMO it's the only way black looks good on those.

What kind of work is involved with this to get the machined face. did you just strip the paint and polish or had it done?

all black, these are z06's but you get the idea. the silver lip looks funny with just black spokes

The all black is too much for your car.

I don't like the way the spokes would be all black and still having the inner lip still silver.

I'd go with the 35 le...and then do the whistler mod w/matching front turn signals.
