All black wheels just look dirty??? - Page 4 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

It all depends on the design IMHO. Not all black wheels look good and not all chrome wheels look good. I don't care for those Havoc wheels period but its your car so whatever you want go with it.

imho i think some 20'' 20x10.5 & 20x10 Machine Face TSW NURBURGRING Wheels would look killer with that white paint or some Flat black TSW INTERLAGOS wheels with a white stripe!!

I also used to think the niche wheels looked good, but that was because i only saw them in photos that were taken from a bit of a distance. An up close shot of those rims made me

See if you can acquire a set from somebody on here, they should start popping up soon as people start modding their 45ths? I got my set for my 2011 from a member here, had them powdercoated black with RY accents, and now have a spare set just in case.

Never liked black wheels. They just disappear as far as the 'look' of a car, especially with similar car paint. Bright sexy wheels always enhances the overall appeal of a car, and contrasts with the body to stand out. That has always been the most popular choice. A specialized look is mostly sought after by a limited crowd. Not a bad thing, just not the most appreciated.

nothing looks better than shiny Bogarts

I love the black on 5th gens, but some cars look good in chrome wheels. Especially older muscle cars, they just don't look good blacked out IMO.

Black wheels are O.K but I prefer "Polished" (a little bling for me please

).
Someone said that chrome doesn't belong on a performance car?
(I don't see the reasoning there).

Did everyone notice that first public announced version of the ZL1 has polished? I believe there will be a lot of ZL1's with polished wheels although it will come with the black as standard .

I hate, strong word, I know, black wheels, they do nothing to enhance the car. Black with crome or polished lips I can deal with, but all black, no, IMO.

She liked my Midnight Silver "RS" wheels better!! I'm digging the Havoc's....and a lot of other all black wheels.

What are your guys' opinions on all black wheels???

In my opinion she doesn't have to like your car parts , as long she enjoys the car owner parts , keep in mind that this is just my opinion !
