Agreed - I'm ether doing one or the other...haven't decided which one yet.

Beat me to it. This is what I'm doing but in a 40% gloss. I like flat black but since nothing else on the car is it looked out of place to me. Didn't want to get the lugs and the center cap painted? It does offset the black which is cool, but I'm trying to get rid of any chrome on my car.

That's one badass ride

gtrpryde · 03-21-2010, 10:42 PM

Thanks for the comments, I like gloss and flat black both, but wanted the wheels to match the stripes.

IOM bowties coming soon, along with a few other goodies. I'll update this thread when I do.

I'll probably paint the centercaps IOM when I do the bowties, and probably black the lugs. I agree on getting rid of all the chrome

At least you never have to clean them.

I appreciate the constructive criticism, however speak for yourself, the Camaro stays clean, Always.

Those wheels ruin the car. I saw one this weekend done that way and there just isn't anything I like about those wheels. Each to his own.

TaylorRyanSS · 03-21-2010, 11:09 PM

Black wheels is the only way to go, it makes the car look even more aggressive. I think the people that do not like black wheels are probably older, it seems like more of a young person thing.

To each his own, alot of people said factory 20s on the car ruined it

I'm 23 and I think it depends on the car, color combo. It looks great on this car but I have seen some that don't look too appealing. IMO

im not feeling it...something seems missing,maybe all black,or kept trim ring silver also....

Correct, I think UPS trucks have black wheels.

Looks good.

Romeloc · 03-22-2010, 09:38 AM

looks good

moultron · 03-22-2010, 08:41 PM

Looks good man......that it exactly what I am in the process of doing to mine. Was going to powdercoat my wheels flat black next week.....Well I may have to do the rims a little different. Here is a few shots of mine. Lot of similiarities to yours. I did the blacked out tail light bezels and the lights themselves. The good thing is we do not live in the same area so it still looks unique to people in my town andI can't accuse you of copying mine......LOL
