Curious how our wheels would look black with super lo-pro rubber. Anybody done this with pics'?

I think it looks kinda dumb. It would have been waaaaay better with flat black as opposed to the shiny black they used, makes it look cheesy.

Not a fan of black wheels .... it just destroys the look of a wheel and its design.

i had my stock wheels redone with black chrome. In hindsight I think I'd rather have them powdercoated in a gunmetal color (fyi, my car is SGM). However, they look way better than the stock aluminum IMO
