Have you ever had a deep dish rim and DD a car? The lip is the BIGGEST PAIN IN THE ******* *** to keep clean.
I go literally 2-3 weeks without touching my spokes.. If it is ever so damp on the roads or accidentally drive through a small puddle.. ANY wetness at all on the rims and I get brown/black streaks where every spoke is all the way to the lip.
Not a hater... RPM 505s... I don't have the money for CCWs, but its not a damned OEM wheel!
While I agree a polished lip looks better (to me) and I don't like black rims to begin with. I see your reasoning and don't blame you. I like it!

It's called an opinion, and I'm entitled to it. If you post something on the internet you need to be prepared for every comment, not just the good ones. I don't like it and that doesn't make me a hater or whatever. I don't mind all black rims, but I don't understand doing that to such an expensive set of rims. Obviously he wants it like that, and that's fine, I just don't like it. So how is that ignorant and offensive?

looks PERFECT!!! ive never liked chrome lips, look like the owner is more worried about show and not enough about go. The only drawback i see to the black is that it hides some of the detail, at a glance i wouldnt be able to tell those are CCW's and damn it, if i drop that kinda coin on wheels i want everyone to see them!!! that aside, its the absolute best white car black wheel combo ive seen!

'n... i guess it kinda illustrates my point in regard to all black wheels, too.

Man that looks absolutely sick! Way too many haters on here! There is plenty of wheels out there that cost a lot more then ccw's that are all black and look awesome! The problem on this site is that everyone just wants to do the same thing and the moment someone does something different then all the flaming begins! Should of just got some vette wheels and everyone would love it! Good job man, i am sure you get lots of compliments out in the real world!!!

Oh please do explain how that was offensive and ignorant?

Pardon me, maybe I should have been clearer in my statement. If I had been the OP, I would be offended. He is every right to do whatever he wants to his car and his wheels, just as you have your right to make your opinionated statement. And I have mine. Sorry, I shouldnt have even said anything.
To the OP, I think the wheels look amazing.
