Im feeling kinda half and half.
I think overall it looks pretty dang good, but i do favor the black wheels with a polished lip.

What wheels on the market that would allow for it though? I can only see 2 or 3 piece wheels having a huge positive feedback...
the only 1's i'm personally thinking of are IForged Classics or Aeros... any others that i might have over looked?

They are badass but a little too black without the keeping the lip polished, love those wheels.

Ok, first off you set a set of kick *** wheels! I think the car looks mean as hell on those all black CCW's..

Did anyone read that his was tired of cleaning the shiny wheels since this is a DD? I would have done the same thing..
How much was it to get done? I kinda was thinking to do that to my RUFF's..

I think powdercoating could be between $50-100 per wheel. Not bad IMO.

That's exactly what I've got planned for my wheels! Ever since I painted my calipers and saw the blue reflection on the lip, I've been jonesing for a blue pinstripe on the lip. I think it will look sick, especially with the center section of the wheel powdercoated black.

IMO, looks really good!
I think with most people it's a Love / Hate relationship with all dark wheels.
IMO, a 1/8" white pinstripe on the wheels would look sweet!

OP, wheels look great,, I'm thinking painting the center caps and a black sail would look killer too. Funny how so many peeps hate the all black wheels because there harder to see or whatever. I don't like polished lips for the opposite reason, I don't care for any one item that stick out on a car and I think black centers with polished lips just kinda look like white wall tires when there rollin down the street. That's just me, but give me all balck any day.

All black definately better than black with polished. On the fence on the whole black wheel look...it does make a statement. IMO not all fbody's can pull it off...for some reason it works on most exotics. May require other details to complete the picture...big brakes, painted/coated calipers, etc

TA looks good, only thing I would do differently would be to get black lugs and center cap

To the OP, your car looks sick. I wouldnt change a thing. And the Black WS6 a few posts up looks amazing. I think polishing up the lip on them would make the wheels look cheap and take away from the stealth look.

What are the details on the black cars wheel/tire combo? It looks like the fronts are 18s or 19s and the rear are an inch smaller in height (lol & 2.5 inches wider ) It could just be the picture angle but was wanting to make sure eyes werent playing tricks on me.

Such a shame to coat such nicely crafted wheels in black.

Oh well, opinions vary.
