Default Black salad shooters hehe

I like it!!! I think I dig this black wheels look, but I don't dig dink toe'd stock skinny wheels. Did my own curb rash fixing, sandblasting, and sealed these babies up in rust oleum gloss black and poped some freebie tires I got from my old job on. They got a pretty decent amount of tread on them so I figured ill throw these on for the car to sit on all winter in the garage. Plus wanted to see if I should get black wheels...





I think I'm gonna get black 17's

Yeah, imo, in order to have black wheels, you have to have a light colored car (like yours) I think it looks good either way tho, the chromes look sharp, but the black would look mean.

looks good with the chrome!!!!! i dunno if you can pull off the black with all the black shit you already have. i think it takes away from the car a little.

Your car looks much better with the vette wheels imo, black does look sinister though
