Love the simplicitity of black...just think w/ the black rims its too much. W/ some chrome or maybe just some regular painted rims you'd get more seperation and it'd setoff the black better. But overall, it does look really good.

No offense, but i dont like solid black wheels on a black car.
Maybe if they had a sliver lip or somthing.

I'd be nervous if I saw that on the side of the road, reminds me of that movie The Car. Very menacing.

Man, that looks mean.. Almost like it's ready to jump out atcha or something.

One last thing though, do the headlight mod, and paint the chrome black. That'll complete the package.

I like the all black look. It looks pretty good but I also think it would look even better if you polished the lip of the wheel or something like that. The black head light mod is a great idea too.

I really like the black wheels, and I think they look great with no polished chrome lip. I've been contemplating painting my wheels black, you just added a vote to the "yes" side...

nice car, keep them wheels as is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and get a grille insert of some type, I hate to see those factory holes...
