Default CCW SP 500s

Hey guys im thinking of ordering some CCWs for my camaro. I really like the smooth clean look they have compared to the IForged rims, however i really like the black on black look with the big fat polished lip. I was wondering what do u guys think of getting a set of CCWs and getting them painted black or powdercoated wand leaving the lip and center cap polished? do u guys think that would look pretty sweet?

Of course it would look sick. I would also consider leaving them polished to see if you like them... Meents02SS has them on his car and dammit... Figure you can always change down the road.

I know what your saying man. The rivets can actually be kinda a pain to clean as well. Right now I don't have any pictures I can send you. I'm at my mother's house in Houston, on her computer. All the pictures I have are on my computer in South Carolina

CCW can paint the centers black for $75/wheel extra. If you're powdercoating you're on your own. I'd prefer powdercoated so I bought the polished and figure I can always have them powdercoated if and when I want.

Polished lips, center caps, and lugs with a black centered wheel looks GREAT though IMO. I may be biased though...
