All black wheels look like shit. It looks like a cheap mod that a high-schooler would do. Leave the chrome lips.

I dont like flat black on wheels... gunmetal or gloss black

Gunmetal just looks like accumulated brake dust to me. I never understood that look.

if you do repaint, go with a gunmetal color or dark grey... it looks good on your color car :)

Try em all black in a gloss this time. If it dont look right a cup of paint thinner will clean em right up.

GROSS! It makes the sidewalls look tall as hell when the wheels were all black. Keep them the way they are, slam your car and you will have a totally different outlook on your wheels. They will look sick with a deep dish once your car is lowered.

Definitely keep it the way they are, they look so much better. All blacks it hard to tell wheel from tire.
