Keep my 10 spokes black or is it time for a change?
I painted my 10 spokes black two years ago and I was wondering if it is time for different color or just freshen them up? I was thinking a dark gray or a medium gray. Something that contrast the black even though I know a lot of people like the black wheels on my car.

Anything would look better than all black, even a polished lip would be an improvement. Total black does nothing for me at all and is a detriment to overall appearance, IMO.

I am with them. We like the black but it needs to have a contrast to it. Normally a polished lip looks good. I would suggest chrome lug nuts and center cap. You could repaint them in a matte black finish? If not it could just be time for some new wheels.

I painted mine black also and added a red stripe to break up the all black. I think it would look good since you have the red ss emblems.

Not a fan of all black wheels either. If you could polish the lip at least I think it would break it up nice
