Need opinions on color of wheels! Please!!!!
Need advise on colors.... I have the HRE 590RS wheels in charcoal grey... After getting them I didn't like the color choice with the black car? I went with that color hoping not to have the brake dust show as much....but I think it has taken away from the look of the car.... So my question is.... Should I get these finished in a gloss all black... Centers and barrel? Or go with the Polished barrels and only gloss black on the centers? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!! Ty! couple of pictures....

Gloss Black centers with Flat black barrels to match the splitter and gfx would be my vote.

Or could even do the reverse of that would look good.

I realize this doesn't solve your dust issue, but just for some more to think about - these are Gloss Gunmetal centers with "Brushed Tint" (whatever that means) lips. I know it's difficult to make wheel color decisions, so if anything hopefully this helps you some how.

I know black rims are all the rage these days but I am an old fart and still love the look of shiny chrome! I know what they say about opinions but I had to give you mine!

I like the chrome also.. I'm torn cause I also like the black... Both I think look great... That why I was thinking of the Polished barrel.. And gloss black centers... Get a little of both... But it's soooo flipping hard to visualize it... And was a big fail (lot of money) for not making the right choice the first time around!! and it took me 4 months to decide on the rims and colors the first time... Just want it to look good... I know black will and am confident with that choice... But the polished is different and would not show the brake dust AS bad???

I don't see anything wrong with the color. I see everything wrong with your ride height! Lower it and you'll see the wheels will work, that's for sure. That wheel gap is killing the lines on the car (let alone EVERY Camaro on stock height who has wheels!!)

Black on black is the way I'm leaning towards.... Would love to see a photo of one with the polished barrel and gloss black center though...

I agree that they do not look right on the car. I would get them done gloss black like the OEM wheels, as they look great on a black ZL1.
