Black wheels are fine, if you like making your Corvette look like a beater taxicab. I know the folks who have them think they are cool.
They aren't.
They aren't.

Oh, I messed up, I thought the poll was "are you a fan of black or dark wheels "yes" or "no" ...even though I'm a fan and voted "yes", I would have voted "no" if they had asked if I thought they were cool...

This never ending debate is why I picked these wheels. They are not chromies and they are not black.. They rock my world

Many on here would disagree with you. Newsflash, just because YOU don't think something is cool doesn't mean it isn't. Every since GM started offering black wheels on the Corvette it's been a very popular option.

You guys are just toooooooooo easy.
"How dare ANYONE say that my personal choice for my own car isn't exactly what everyone in the world should like, admire and want?"
For God's sake, people - get over yourselves. It's your car it's your choice. I can't help it if you made a bad one.

Never liked black wheels before. Always thought that they looked like people got them because they didn't want to clean them. Bought my car from dealer stock. Wheels were there. I think they look good with the color.

I didn't until I started shopping C7s. Most of the color combos I was looking at looked better with black and that is what I went with. My still buy a set of chrome or polished aluminum for it, but I'm very happy with the wheels I have.

Btw, I keep my black wheels clean.

My first vehicle with black wheels is my daily (2015 Silverado) the vette is my second, I like them both but probably wasn't a big fan until the last 5 years or so...
