Greg...

I don't think the camera is doing these wheels justice... angle of the sun,
poor camera quality, bad camera angles, maybe?

Anyway, if I were going to do this I would have went with a -more-
matte/flat finish as the shade seems to match the molding better and it
brings the lines together a bit more on the car.

I've thought about plasti-dipping mine to see if I like it or not... If not
I can easily remove it.

Chris,

I'm sure some better camera angles, lighting, etc. may help, but in the end I just don't get why people want to spend money on wheels that just look like a big black donut on the car.

You could spend $5,000 or $500 on the two different set of wheels and from 20-30 feet away can't identify what kind of wheel is on the car. :shrug:

As I said before this is just my opinion and I know that plenty of people like the solid black wheel thing, I'm just not one of them!

Like the above poster I just dont understand the all black wheel concept. It looks too plain. Kind of like my winter wheel package on my daily ride.

I think those look pretty cool on a white car, especially with the black CS stripe.

Also, looking at those pictures they appear shinier than I was expecting for semigloss.
