Normally I would go with silver, but I am digging the black wheels on your car. Clean ride.

Black wheels are so overdone.
Besides, most black wheels from 10 feet away look just like steel wheels. That's my opinion.

a land yacht.
The copper brakes look better behind the black wheels, but the silver wheels look good. Not sure, I like both.

Black all the way.

The silver def has some editing going on and looks cool, bit the black looks "real" and is just sick IMO.

Thanks fellas for all your opinions!

I'm a bit torn myself. I loved how the standard silver popped when I first got them after coming from matte blk & textured gunmetal Forgestar wheels. But then I got bored and decided to paint the one side black. I've had different style wheels and colors on each side many times in the past. It's my own thing I guess. I've always said, you cannot see both sides of the car at the same time so this is the best of both worlds

Black is my favorite now since its new but the silver still looks great as well


Wald LED's I got from Jonari.com

I've thought about running different colored wheels on each side before. Do it!

Also, didn't you have a rear wing at one point that stuck out pretty far, like a miniature Saleen S281 wing?
