Question What do you think of black rims?

Before I commit to purchase, what do you guys think of the black rims that people are putting on their cars?

I found some really nice ones 18x8 with a glossy black finish and chrome lip to go on my Black 2000 Chevy Impala

let me know

i THINK black rims only look good if you add a spinner on them but thats my opinion. DON'T get 18"s. they will look tiny. I put some 20"s on when I first got my car and even those look small. everybody kept saying why did you put 18"s you should of gotten 20"s then I tell them they're 20"s. the impala fender well is alot bigger than you think. since then I sold the 20's and put a set of 22x9.5 wheels with a 30 series tire. I'm finally satisfied with that set up. and it still rides good.

\Why pay $500 for rims when you cant even see them? You can only see them when yopur up close.

I'd like to addin that bigger rims also weigh more and i've heard some people with Impala's that have 18 on up wheels have seen a noticable drop in gas milage. I like black wheels, but mine are the police ones

Re: What do you think of black rims?

The ones I have in mind are from BSA automotive (www.us-bsa.com) the model number is 304. They come chrome standard but you can have them powder coated gloss black with chrome lip. what do you think?
