You weren't supposed to open the boxes until Christmas!! Those will look nice with your color bar, be sure to post pics once they are mounted.

Thanks everyone! I had a real tough time deciding between black or chrome but ultimately decided on black. I think they will contrast nicely with orange! Chrome would have been nice too but I've always liked black wheels. I went through the chrome fettish with my Harley's but I'm over it now! Lol!

They will look very good-I'm sure of it! Love the wheel color choice-I'll probably be going the same route you did. I dipped my stock rims black and it looks amazing against the orange. IMO DSOM is the best color-but I'm a tad biased...

That's exactly what I was thinking. The orange stripe will look good

Yep, looks like you were visited by the wheel fairy. Your car will look killer with those wheels. I think the stripe would look even more killer....do it!
