I still think you should consider getting some Plasti-Dip and highlighting the wheels a little (a la Lamborghini). That way, if you don't like it, you can just pull it off.

I don't know....I've just never been a fan of black wheels because you lose contrast in the total look of the car.

I HATE my wheels in pictures.. but in person they look really good.. I want to do something different but eventually the s's will be my winter wheels... Hopefully gunna put vs-xx's on it with deepdish front and back

Yea, pictures don't do justice to black wheels...I'm sure that's why I don't like them in the first place.....
