Wheels - Black vs Chrome vs Silver, etc.

DISCLAIMER: This is a really crappy photoshop job. It's the first time I've ever used it. Please disregard the quality, or the lack thereof.

Here's the factory rims...




Black with polished lip




Chrome...



Silver...



I really like the looks of the black wheel with the polished lip. I think the black plays well with the black band across the bottom of the doors. Not sure if I'd get tired of it quicker than chrome or silver, or if it would be a huge pain to keep clean.

I think I like the chrome second best. It's a bit darker than the silver and makes me think that a gunmetal or hyper black would look good too.

These may not be the exact wheels. I really like the BBS basket style, but am looking at a few others too. Looking more at the color scheme right now.

Anyway, opinions are welcome, except for opinions on my crappy Photoshop job. I already know about that

The ASA is what I PSd onto my car. From TireRack. I can get those locally for the same money or less. I like them better than some others i've seen like the Voxx that you posted because I like the all black centers.

Edge racing has this one..

SSW Inferno. No rivets. One less spoke. Pretty similar otherwise. Don't know anything about SSW quality though.



Saw this on eBay. It isn't black, and they're only 16s, but it's a heck of a deal for a set of BBS OEM.

I'm with you, that's why I liked the ASA over the SSW

I like the black center though. I saw a wheel somewhere that had black centers and 10 spokes, but I can't find it now.

Found a real wheel to PS on. A little closer to the real look than the TireRack photo since it's flat and you can see the rotors through the spokes....

Chrome is in... but only for Work, SSR, Volk, etc. and with aggressive offsets and widths. For the standard wheel, I'd go for silver.

You should also make the tires and rims a little bigger. Right now your 17's arent really filling in the fenders. Just something i noticed... Kinda looks stupid with the sow profile tiny wheels haha! I like the photoshop!
