Another Rim Thread...

I hate doing this but with a purchase like rims, i want to get it right. I also know that rim choices are all about personal preference...but its better to get some choices and opinions.

I have a black 11' gt. And decided to go flat black with accents. I have decided to go with a black/flat black rim.

I really like the 5 spoke look.

I really dig the second.

Any comments? feelings? other suggestions?

I'm not really a big fan of the rivets. I agree on the second ones as far as the choices you selected. THANK YOU for not having just a black lipped wheel. I really like the finished lip much better as it breaks up the wheel from the tire.

This was by far the most stressful thing I have ever tried to do on a car. Took me 6 months to decide on the right wheels. For black, I think chrome is the right way to go. Deep dish, baby.

Not a fan of the fake 3-piece look. Otherwise, that second option looks good.
