I like the stock wheels, but i wanted a change from the silver that didnt really go with my black car with tinted lights and windows... Now I think it looks pretty good. Definitely the best $11 mod so far IMO :cool:

Just took them off. cleaned them. sanded them. and painted them with a few coats of semi-gloss spray paint. ive done it before with friends wheels and had great luck.

wow, those really do look quite amazing lol... get some spacer's out back and that will make it have a super aggressive look IMO

And get a drop too, you're not doing her justice

thanks i like it alot. and i plan on getting some steeda sport springs soon (1"F, 1.25"R) and ill need new tires soon. probably gonna probably get 275/40/18s... yes i know they are wide, but they will fit fine on a 8" wheel. theres a guy with a challenger with 18x7.5" wheels running 295s fine and it looks pretty sick. but yeah im close to the wear bars on the back after 5k miles.... oh well haha

Looks amazing man! Makes me wanna go out and do mines!

Don't do it man!!! Won't look good on your car. I think Yellow and Orange cars look bad with black wheels in most cases.

Looks great on the OP's car, though

What he said. Flat or matte black rims on a light colored car makes it look like they lost their hubcaps.

Yeah, there was a yellow vert with solid black wheels at the show this weekend. Bone stock except the wheels and it looked like ass in a bucket.
