The black American Racing TTM's (Torque Thrust) would look mean on a black car, and American also has some cool looking black wheels in the Dale Jr. line.
Also, there's a guy on here who has black ZR1's on his T/A, they actually look pretty good.
yeah i liked the TTM's they were just like 900$ lol

That's the closest to black that looks good. Anymore and it's just badness.Quote:

lol you don't like black rims?
No, I try and try, but never can get myself to like them. I think they give cars a dead look. I only saw one car I like them on and it was a C6 Z06.
i don't like the all black ones.. i like the black w/ chrome lip though
Still to much black. I think chrome is the best not just due to the brightness, but they are really easy to keep clean. Polished is a PIA. Silver or other painted ones are not bad though minus the black.
TTM's FTW.
The guy I bought my SS from threw in the stock 10 spoke 35th ann SS wheels with the deal. They were a little rough to put on the car so I smoothed them out and Painted them gloss black. Now I am just waiting to be able to justify new tires in order to pu some 275/40/17 BFG's on them and have a blacked out ss.
Here you go, we have a winner.Quote:

Also, I saw a set of C6 Z06's that were all black, those look mean too.
:bow:i guess were the minority `round here..most everyone on here likes to hate on black wheels,but afterall it is your car,your style,your money & your decision..& i get nothing but compliments on mine.by the way i did get these off ebay along w/ my new tires mounted/balanced for `bout $1700Quote:

yeah i think they might look better on a diff color car though
I bought a set of 18" MB racing "Drifters", they are 5 spokes witha polished rim ande were @ $160 each. I got them from Discount tire and they look really good on my car.

yep...its the reason i went with an 8" up front. the car doesnt want to pull when theres an imperfection in the road. with the 9" up from the car tracks real bad and i didnt want that. it drives soo much better now. im not doin any road racing with these wheels so its perfect for cruisin.Quote:

I can't decide between these two:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-9-...spagenameZWDVW
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17x9-...spagenameZWDVW
It basically comes down to the lip. Should I get it polished or go solid black. I can't decide what I like best.
Hi Vannatte,
I think a solid color looks best with those wheels. If the wheel had a nice deep lip then I would say chose the polished lip one.
IMO the solid black wheel looks nicer because it looks complete. Visually to me the wheel with the polished lip dissrupts the flow of the wheel lines and it looks.... incomplete IMO.
here's mine...17x9.5 C5 Z06...These are my roommate's rims off his '98 SS...I'll be buying 18x10.5 ones in the spring.

IMO, black ZR-1's.
