Looks horrible. Powder coating all black in glossy or matte would look much better. IMO

Do the reverse. Black out the well and sides of the spokes but leave the outside of the spokes polished silver

Not a fan of chrome on black. I like less contrast and more subtle. Its the only reason I got the RS package to have the darker rims.

I think they make vinyl decals like that. I'm not a big fan of it though.

I actually saw an SS with this done. It didn't look "bad" but it didn't really look "good" either.

Personally, I'd go all black or better yet....hydrocarbon the entire wheel..
