Once I get my CGM I intend to put some black wheels on it. I think it looks mean with black wheels.

Personally, I don't think this "automobile" will ever replace horses.

It eventually will lose it's 15 minutes of fame, but some will always like it. We used to call it, De-chroming, it's not new at all.

Black wheels due work on nascars for some reason. So, Maybe if you get a sponsor and a window net they might look good.

actually black wheels have been around alot longer than you think. look at some of the old 60's cars. they had black wheels. some even had body matched paint on them. so these new wheels are kind of the same look,just in a larger scale. i dont see them really going out of style. i just see different styles and sizes going out of style.

Yes ,that's true but for a very differant reason. Back in that day they were often just a black steel rim sometimes with a moon hub cab. They weren't worried about looking good. They just wanted to go fast and fancy wheels didn't make them go any faster.

To me I think black wheels look cheap. When I see car with black wheels 1st thought is there running on spare tires. And 2nd thought is they watchto much nascar. But that's just my opinion on black wheels.
