Default 2014 Black Onyx Premium with Black Powder Coated wheels

Saw this on up for sale and was wondering what you fellow GX owners thought. I think the wheels powder coated black look pretty good.

By looking at the finish they look like they may be plasti dipped but it's just a guess.

In my opinion, I think black wheels will only work on a black GX. Starfire pearls may be able to get away with black chrome wheels. But to me, the GX loses its classiness if I see it configured with black wheels.

I have a '14 starfire pearl and will be plasti dipping my stockers anthracite metallic. We'll see how that goes. I just want to see what colors work with my GX before I fork over thousands on a new set of wheels.

Love it!! If the wheels are in fact powder coated, then awesome. If they are plasti-dipped then its just gonna be flaky crap soon.

I think black chrome would look better, that matte black color look like the color getting fade or cheap looking though.

Makes the wheels look too small. What are they? 15" ? Not a fan here.

Just my opinion….they look like someone took them off a mule car…. I know that look is really in style now. I see them on a lot of cars around here…but not for me.
