Default Rims and Tint advice
Hello all, I recently got 20% tint on the sides and rear window on my 2002 SS. I currently have the SLP 10 spoke chrome wheels on the car and the car color is metallic navy. I like the look the car has now, but I would like to see what Black rims or darker rims look like on a black or navy F body with tinted windows. I just want to get an idea of if I should be saving my pennies for a wheel swap out in the future. The more "murdered out" the better as my friend says... Send me some pics please!!!

I was thinking something similar or even a gun metal would go well with that color combo. Could even keep the 10 spokes and powder coat or paint em.
