Some look great some no so great. To each their own
I went with matte black on the GS wheels, should have never sold them:

I love the look of my black A Molds. Drastically improved the look of the car.

I'm not a huge fan of black rims, but some cars do look pretty good with them.
2 things about them.
1 .To me, I always thought they looked like a steel wheel that was missing a hubcap.
2 . I can't make out very much detail of the rim, unless I get close to it.
Anybody try using those disc brake dust shields with black wheels, so the spokes stand out?

So what's the scoop on those wheels? I really like my chrome a-molds, but those would look plain sinister on my black '96
