New wheel color!

Gloss black - totally changes the car. What do you all think?

Looks like mine, except mine's meteor gray. You need to paint the bolts black to complete the look, though. Are you lowered at all?

You have any pics of your ride? I was thinking about black rims but was unsure whether the look was played out.

Looks very good. Did you purchase them, paint, or powdercoat them? Have you considered adding black stone guards?

Ranger - thanks. let's see some pics of the meteor. thought about painting the bolts black too; going back and forth. car is lowered - H&R sport springs was one of the first modifications i made. stiffened the ride but i love the look.

Taxi - thanks. it's a powdercoat with a clear gloss on top (from what I understand). went back and forth on gloss versus matte; think gloss was definitely the right decision. yes, thinking on the black stone guards. just can't decide if that's going to be beyond the subtle look that I like. what do you think?

Nice wheels! Does make the silver stand out more. I had to removed my H&R springs--way too stiff for me. Good luck on the stone guards. I'm gonna have to redo mine since its too high. I don't think you're gonna have a problem since you don't have side skirts. I would leave some room between it and the edge of the wheel well though and don't have it too high since it looks kinda funny (this is how mine is and therefore a redo).
