I like the look of your black wheels, always partial to them!

I took this snap about 2 weeks ago.

Thank you....Next, I want to rid myself of those hideous orange, and red, side marker lenses, as well as the red tail lights, and replace them with the black smokey type. I think that will finish the black on silver look throughout the car.

Big fan of black wheels, mine have custom painted to match center caps,valve stems, valve caps and rotor hats. I like tinted lamps as well. Tinted blk angel eye LEDs replacing these today. OP, that ride is sweeeet. Really like the blk and silver combo as well!

My last red one was a 69 vert.......I've had 3 different black ones but technically my CE is carbon flash. There's a very sweet red Z that's slammed with black wheels and a bunch of C.F. Was on here in a driveway pic thread or post your favorite pic thread. The guy is local to me in Woodridge, Il. Can't wait to see it in person. For me it's always been black or silver with black winning every time. Then, it's dirty in 12 minutes after I clean it and I wish I'd picked silver. Something really sinister looking about the black ones tho.

I am contemplating lowering mine on the stock bolts but I don't know what effect that will have on launch control to be honest.

I agree....Black on Black, on top of Black is my favorite. I love the evil look!

Unfortunately, I hate keeping them clean, more than I love the look, so I buy Silver, which is my second choice.

not08crmanymore, thanks for the compliment!

I was 5 seconds away from buying a '13 black coupe but couldn't get passed the fact that i'd need to be cleaning it every ten minutes..Had a black 95 and 01 and they looked good for the 15 minutes they stayed clean but it was a lot of work!
