What is the reason you like black wheels?  I just don't get it? I guess to me Chrome and or painted look much better but I just would like some opinions. I am not trying to be nasty, I just like the fact with chrome or painted you can actually see the details of the rims vs the tire and or surrounding body of teh car/truck.

i don't like a solid black rim.  it looks like a spare.  but if it has a polished lip it has potential...   it also depends on what color car it's on.  i love having black rims on mycar.  i get nothing but praise from everyone.

I agree with that statement.  Another thing with me is that it sets my car apart from the other "red" GTs where I live.  Nothing urks me more then to have the same thing as someone else and just blend in.  I have to be different and I have to be me!! lol  But, it also has to be something I like.  Since I like black rims it only made sense to do it and be different!!!

Now, will I change again one day.....you can count on it....its like fashion, you also want to keep up with the trends as well.

All Black car with Chrome looks good! I can also say that the red one looks OK too but there is enought background that is not black to let you see the detail.

I think black w/ chrome can work, but I hate all black.  That new edge looks sick though.  I think that brighter wheels make the car look faster and classier

im not a fan of black rims, i like some but not many. chrome looks best on everything imo. and most of the time ricers have black rims so they have rice qualities.
