I am also not a fan of all black wheels. looks like a factory steel rim at a glance, especially if the car is moving. black with a polished/chrome lip i like though.

I think the only time it looks good is when everything is blacked out. Sidemarkers, taillights, tint etc etc. It looks...just downright mean.....

I love black wheels on a black car.

Very understated look.

These were the ones I had on my black C5.

At night the car was just simply nasty looking.
