Default Black SC's with black rims

I'm in the market for some wheels, but haven't been able to find many pictures of black wheels on an SC (besides a few on this site from Black_SC and two or three others). Can someone point me in the right direction to find some decent pics, or just post some in this thread?

Here's a quick PS concept I did for my future plans... Black/Black SC300 w/ Auto Couture aero kit and black Lative wheels.



They're supposed to be 19's, but they're not scaled quite right

Black-on-black SCs are soo nice. If I had a black SC, I would probably do black spokes with a polished lip (or chrome). Here's a few pics from CarDomain:

I never liked black rims since they hide the details. But if you insist, number three takes my vote.

I think black/dark wheels really brings out the lines in the SC. The body is more noticeable with non-flashy wheels. I never liked black wheels, until recently, when I saw some nice black-on-black SCs. Black/dark wheels HAVE to have a shiny (polished/chrome) lip, though, for me to even like them.

Luckily I have a black SC; rims are defiantly on my to do list, and I'm pretty much set on black ones. However I never liked anything thats over-done, or something that has a 'been-done before' label to it. I like my ride (along with other things) to be totally original. Therefore, I plan on getting black rims with a Red lip (there was a post on this a while back, Rota wheels). Recently I've even been thinking a neon green lip for a very tuned look. I'm a strong believer in not being a follower, and although black rims are great, I dont want to be just another suped up car with black rims. Being progressive and on top of it all is my game! I think a Red or Green lip is gonna be HAWT!!! I'll keep you all posed on MY progress in the coming months..

As for you 'atx', hit up the black I say, nothing looks smoother than a black SC on dark rims!

If you go with black wheels, it has to have a lot of lip and the lip has to be polished. It's the only way I would rock black rims.
