Here you go Im going to say it, "leave them chrome", I am not a fan of chrome but on your car the orange will POP and look amzing, I have the flat black and will be re-powder coating semi-gloss black in the near future. keep them chrome and if you dont like them you can always powder coat them, easier to do it this way and not the other way around. good luck either way your car will look awesome, hope this helps

Either way will look good. However Here is a pic of them on GO without anything done to them and it looks sexy as shit.

See, those look good on that car with silver stripes.
The OP is showing black stripes, which is why I think you should follow the theme.

Leave them alone. They are one of the best looking wheels out. If you make them black. You will loose all the effect.

I vote to either A. Leave them as-is, or B. sell them and keep the black ones that are on your car now. I would not black out the Shelby wheels.

Just MHO, I really like your car the way it sits now, with the black bullets.

I voted powder coat them, but after seeing the pics of the GO with the chrome, gotta admit it's a tough call. Love the black wheels on there now though too. Good problem to have, cuz you can't really go wrong.

Fuk no, leave them alone. Wrong wheel to black out, it looks way to classy as is.

Cam I agree Im just afraid the Black on the car will drown them out
The silver strips on these do them justice.
So a complete stripe make over ????? NA

Im starting to think this

Thanks That is exactly what my wife is telling me
Geezzz But I do love these wheels

Man I dint think i can powder coat them now after looking at it real good you may be right

Can't go wrong either way IMO. Now, trade them to me and I'll make the decision for you. Want some Shelby CS40's?? :)

Dulla

I was wondering when all of the wheel Whores like you and Cam would step in :kidding:

Not a huge fan of the CS40 on my car

Looks like I may just sit on these for while, maybe put tires on them in a few years and see what they look like on the car with the bright finish.
Wify says no to powder coating them, and she likes the bullets on the car.
So maybe if I give her a couple of years, they may wear off of her

Thanks for all of the help guys

Silver Gt/CS striping would be killer. Match it up with your current pattern in silver.

I have a set of Alcoas already but I am now trying to find another set, haha. I looked on eBay and $3500 is nuts. I don't care how you look at it for a 20x9 and 10" wheel that suggests a 275/35... That's just madness.

So if your looking to strike a deal... LMK. Ill take them black or durabright, haha
