The world would be boring if we all liked the same stuff. Black wheels look dirty to me and disappear into wheel wells, but that's my tastes/opinion.

Do what you like purplecty.

Well, that's how it used to be in the past - every new car had silver wheels .. and now yet more silver .. cool! There's a reason for the new trend in the last few years ... go figure ...

Fuh raze! It's like underglow and tire flies (lol that trend was hilarious). I blame Porsche for the black wheel trend right now. Then other hipo brands started doing it and it went mainstream.

I'm glad we have so many options for wheel colors now from OE sources. I've rocked white wheels, silver, charcoal (nogaro), but not black. Black is a waste of design. Again IMO. We all have em, that's mine.

The shop did a good job. The wheels look great!

Purplecty 08-25-2020 08:24 AM

The best part is the shop ONLY charges $50 a wheel if they come in with no tires and you can choose any color you want. If they have to dismount the tires its an extra $25 a wheel. They are super duper busy as you can imagine with this mind of pricing...

Thats a very good price depending on quality. Dont see those prices even close in my hood. Took mine down south with a bulk order and had them done. Did they also coat the barrels as well and clear?
