    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.
