Very good point.

Has anyone had tires changed with the Black rims, if so, did the tire machine wear off any of the paint, or scratch them to where the aluminum shows?

Did you try the Wheel & Tire threads in this section? Might be some info there.

Check out my build thread for pictures and I'm color matching most of my mods with the Crystal Red Tintcoat.

I wasn't sure about the color until I saw it in person, it looks amazing and especially in the sun! Also go with the black wheels, IMO they look much better AND they are standard!

Black Wheels on CRT looks awesome - pictures do not do it justice

If the place scratched your wheels then they suck and its there fault. I've had alot of black wheels unmounted and mounted.

First there are 12 shades of CRT, then depending on how much light hits the car, you would think you own a burgundy color car on a cloudy day…then wow…when the sun really shines it looks almost candy apple red…photos are not going to do the CRT justice…only the human eye up close in-person. Chrome or black wheels you can’t go wrong…enjoy your Camaro.
