here's mine in gloss black on black, with a red stripe. I wanted a little bit of color and love these wheels. However, I think the above posted matte black looks nice too. Whatever you do though, spend the money to powdercoat. Paint is too much of a pain and it rock chips rather easily... powedercoating is much more durable and the finish will stay with you especially if it is cleared over. Good luck with your choice!

Great lookin' car...
Did you buy the wheels like that, if so, who did you get them from? I like the black wheel with the red stripe...

just pulled it off right before, got a tint ticket for 5%. Grass is always greener on the other side. I'm a big fan of the white
thx split71, all I did was powder coat them and then there is a red vynle stripe kit out there for like 10 bucks

Yeah, blacked out Vette's look menacing. Save the bling for the wifes ride !! If bling was fast the C5-R and C6-R would have polished/chromed wheels.
