Sweet, usually blk/blk wheels look meaner and aggressive but this one looks sweeter than meaner. Seller should powder coat some more wheels, he did excellent job.

lol thanks!

The wheels were actually masked and powder coated thus creating the stripe. so they were baked twice. I told the gentleman whom i bought them from that he should do more of these!

Looks good. I was thinking about doing that with my wheels. Do you have any action shots? Like of your car moving? I bet those wheels look good spinning.
