Wheels opinion
I brought out the plasti-dip today to help out with my wheel dilemma. I did just a quick coat to show what it would look like if they were black and here is what I came up with. I am considering getting them powder coated gloss black in this style, what do you guys think?

After testing with the plasti-dip I am pretty certain I will go with black but I always like to hear a little feedback before making such a drastic change. Another option is black cup wheels.
In these type threads it usually seems pretty divided anyway so probably wont help me much!

No vote either way.
Go with what "you" really like, not with the poll winner. (It's been proven that chrome wins these polls 100 times out of 100)
Everyone has different taste and you're no different in that respect...

I see lot's of "gloss" black wheels around here which look Pep Boys cheap & cheesy, i.e., think Japanese boy racer cars.
IMO, the flat black (sampled in your Plasti-Dip experiment) is a much better look.

That is the problem, I have always had chrome on my cars but in this case I am leaning toward black but having a hard time making the final call.
