Default Considering new wheels

Aftercurb-checking one of my wheels today, I realized that because my caris blacked out (black paint, tinted windows, black tailights), it will look killer will some 20's that are black with a chrome lip. If you do not know what that means, here is a preview of one: http://www.americanmuscle.com/20x85-...aos-wheel.html. If this seems like a good idea, let me know and please vote on the poll. This is a side view of my car (bear in mind my taillights are blacked out) so you can get a better idea of what it could look like with new rims.

Keep in mind the link to those rims are merely to show the black with chrome lip style. I'm not considering getting those specific ones. Im going to get 20x10's most likely

Maybe not the best photoshopping in the world, but this is what it would look like. I kind of like it, but would have to stay Saleen on principle.

I'm not big on black wheels on black cars. Just my opinion....throw black wheels on a black car, and you lose the wow factor....you're left with nothing that draws the viewers eye to the car for closer inspection. .

Strong work Jazz !

Jazz-Kitty, that looks like an Amish buggy --- makes me LOL every time I look at it.

Hey, just got an idea... if the Chineseautoimport business doesn't work out, maybe Mr. Saleen can design a line of horse-drawn carriages!
