I have the darker, titanium smoked factory 19" rims (F Sport) on my 13..... it looks "OK" IMO, on my Pearl White RX. Would not be my first choice. I actually would have preferred the chrome.
If I was to replace these rims (will not, since I already paid premium for them)....I would first consider nice white rims... I really like the look of white rims on white car, and black rims on black cars. Other car colors don't lend themselves to this very well. However, only a few car makers have offered white rims with their white cars, so maybe its just my funky taste, but have a look if you are considering changing rims. Of course, it would be advisable to not select a LOUD set of rims, as the RX is an understated rig to begin with... here is a sample pix that looks decent.... I am curious what others think?

I was thinking about doing the same a while back, but the wife put a stop to that before it started. If you decide to do so, post pix I'm interested in how it looks. I Plasti-dipped all the rear chrome emblems already so black-out wheels I think would go well.

You can go on tirerack's website and pick black wheels to your liking. There's a link to see what it will look like on your vehicle. That should give you a good idea of what it will be like, if nobody posts pictures.

well i dont wanna buy a new set of rims, i have 19s on my RX rn, and i was thinking either goin to a shop where my friend went to do his rim, they paint them really nice, i like them, but they charged him almost 900$, which is a bit expensive for me, i only work part-time and full time student, and he works 6 days a week full-time at a good office so its not much for him. or i just gonna plasti dip it like 3-4 layers which is cheaper and in case they wont look good, i can peel it off and keep it stock. I do agree about black on black, its great, i used to have black in/out lexus on black rims limo tinted and smoked taillights lol, but with this car i dont want cops to pull me over every other block. So im thinking to increase tints to 5% and windshield to 35% in next couple of months, just gotta get used to a car, black rims, smoked taillights, should look alright no?
