I like 'em much better than black. I wonder if they were painted....never seen them in silver. They remind me of Minilites.

I have to say they caught my eye. Maybe its just cause I'm used to always seeing them black. Now that makes think what they would look like in differant finishes

Not a fan of the silver and not a fan of the green spoiler.

This exactly. This is how they should have been stock. I had the idea to find a set and have them painted like the OP's pics, but the stock Boss wheels were really hard to find at the time, so I gave up.

Hey...yeah. They look pretty sharp.

I like them at least as much as the stock finish and "different" is interesting (IMO).
I had seen folks powdercoat them to be all black and it's a similarly refreshing change.

That said, modern car wheel offsets are just never as pretty as the classics with deeper offsets so these are inherently so-so wheels, IMO no matter how they're painted. Take a look at that Minilite wheel that TripleBlack14 posted. Nothing looks that good these days.

Saleen comes even closer to the Minilite....one less spoke and bit pricey though.

I almost got these too lol. You can find sets on eBay for much less. The 5-spoke Heritage wheels are even less! You can get them on eBay for $650.

I think they'd look great with Ingot Silver, Patrick.

I wanted those so bad, but I couldn't find them in black, nor did I want to buy a wheel with limited production should I ever need to replace one.
