I love them, but certain styles are very overdone.

Can do without them, but thats just my opinion. I'm sure there are people that don't like my CCW T10s, but I do.

I fit looks good to you then go with it. I think it's a passing fancy, Chrome is classic and never goes out of style.

Default Hate 'em

I call it "the black wheel disease" and I can't wait for it to die out.

That being said, there are maybe less than 10 cars (fully built works of art) that look really good with 'em.... but for the most part.... *hatred*

I was always left with a melba toast taste until the 96' Grand Sport came out. I became somewhat impartial...thee 'I kinda like, but not on my car'...then something came over me, and I bought black QX1/C6 wheels a month ago.

Love em now.

Hate Them
They look good up close. BUT from a distance it looks like your hub caps fell off.
