No to the all blacks...looks incredibly cheap on most cars.

The above car would look great with chrome or polished aluminum rims instead.

Chrome/polished wheels are old school and bling bling, if youre into a mean race look you go black or gunmetal.

you can't beat the "murdered out" look. i'm probably never going to build a car like that, but nobody should be alound to bash the black on black on black on black cars without getting a few teeth knocked out

it's your car dude, do what you want. you'll only get frustrated on here because EVERYONE has a different opinion of what's "cool." i had a 2005 'raven' yamaha R6. it was all black, with a semi-gloss black mid fairing and had black wheels with a red pinstripe around them. that's a good look too...
