That looks really good. I think with a black wheel, you HAVE to go larger to not make the wheel look "small".. and the chrome lip prevents it from that batmobile-wannabe look, which some like, but I can't stand.
To your eye, does the lip on the wheels really "pop" when you look at it, or is it subdued a little because of the black wheel?
Alchemist - I thought your wheels were the $$ CCWs! I really want a mesh wheels, but the lazy man in me says cleaning the split 5-spokes are MUCH easier.

Nope, current ones are Ruff 278s, old ones were HP evo's. I debated and debated on getting a set of CCW's or HRE's, but decided to go with the Ruff's and a lift instead.
To 99.9% of the people out there, they look the same, and having the lift is great for storing the car in the winter, and makes oil changes, and exhaust work a breeze.

car looks good, i was always a black on black fan with larger wheels. i went different with the set currently on my car. they are forge grey (match interior) and i also have "custom caps" the wheels are actually listed for sale, but looking at yours kind of makes me want to keep them.

Where did you get the caps? They look exactly like OE...very nice!
