pleeeeze keep them polished. i personally cannot stand black wheels, especially on black cars. but that's just my opinion.

What about both? Although I also love chrome on black cars, I like the Foose DS-5s.

that looks nice! ...I originally wanted a three piece all black finish with chrome fasteners, but not done saving enough $$$ for the ones I want, so in the mean time I thought of getting these powder coated.

The solid black is a bit much on a black ride IMO. Black and chrome is very cool. A really great look is black chrome like on MDEWHEMI's Charger. PM him for a pic.

ALL black looks terribly cheap.

Black with a polished lip on custom wheels is nice.

OEM wheels with black "pockets" and everything else polished is also nice.

Will the Jeep SRT8 wheels work on a Charger? If so, get those in black!

Or do a polished wheel with a black lip!

Well everyone's got chrome wheels these days... I would go with black, it makes the car more agressive!

Black car needs a contrasting wheel. Stands out better to me. Leave them polished.

Reminds me of really old cop cars. They did black wheels because they were the cheapest possible option for them.

I guess I can't look past that.

I knew I was in the minority, but it is refreshing to hear that at least a couple other folks aren't fans of black wheels. I can't stand them.

In my humble opinion, the best looking wheels in this thread are the originals.

Black with polished lip. Need that contrast.

If you go black, I'd go with a brilliant black finish versus a flat. Also, adding say red penstriping or another contrasting color on the edge of the wheel would look tight!!
