You could always have the factory wheels powder coated.

I recall someone having a pic in their album of a black coupe with the window trim painted black (and I think the door handles and side flares too), and I believe had black rims too. But can't remember who now. Try using the search tool for 'black' and 'wheels' or 'rims'.

I think mightyjlr was the one with his window trim painted to match his car, but I don't remember if he also had his wheels painted.

I don't like it personally. We all have different tastes I suppose. But I don't like this.

It kind of makes the stock windscreen (front window) surround that is silver look really rubbish. If you are going to go to those lengths to black everything don't skimp on that bit as well as those horrible orange coloured side lights. At least these are clear by default over in the UK.

They might be ronals...or maybe not. I think that is Punisher's car.

Ronals can be bought in custom colors. cool but expensive

I think all blk sucks, the wheels highlight the design and all blk does nothing except change it.

That is the beauty of personal preference.....:P only the owner has to like it.
I think the particular one in the picture is not too bad if you like black :-) but would also change the side lights to the white ones.
On my Blaze the silver accents are what most people really are drawn to...so I won't change a thing.
