Default black rims

I had a special edition 1990 nissan sentra that came with black enkei 5-spoke wheels. Red car on black wheels looked pretty cool. The car had some black accents that set off the theme....black moulding, black door handles, black trunk rack, it was pretty cool. It's not new, just recycled.

As for my opinion, I think wheels should be shiny. I got tired of the black wheels and replaced em with machined faced wheels with red accents. THAT WAS COOL! Everyone loved it.

I like that look, but only like you suggested, with a polished lip. Going all black cheapens it, IMHO.

I've thought for years that black rims would look awesome on a lot of cars. Took this long for "hip" to catch up with me?

On a black car, any black rims with a silver/polished/chrome lip will look awesome, even the hideous stock wheels



(yea the front wheels are photoshopped on there, but you still get the point)

Hey, I happen to like my stock wheels. And yes, they're the fan spoke type like in that pic, just not black.
