They 17x9, I did it because not many people will do it. Plus when driving it looks like a cop car not many people mess with me.

I'm not a big fan of black on black, but it does have the stealth look going on.

Black on Black, not my cup of tea. but they do have that "custom look-i'm the only one in my city with them, and when people see the Black Z, if the wheels arn't black the car ain't mine".

Cheers

Do you really get noticed less with your black wheels?? I have gotten pulled over 3 out of the 4 times ive taken my car out in the last two weeks. I am a COP MAGNET. As a matter of fact I almost got pulled over last night while taking the car for a spin. Guess it depends on the cop but ya gotta expect treatment like that when your car stands out, or the exact opposite
