Thread: Black wheels, yay or na?

I hate black wheels (especially alloys). I think they really make a car look cheap.

pretty sad to hear that fella, i thought they looked ok, i'm not really a show pony type just happened to have some left over rattle cans and the wheels were looking very sorry for themselves, they're steel not alloy btw

I reckon black wheels look tougher. I like it! Way better than ratty silver.

Well, you did ask for opinions. Yes, I realise those rims are steel. Black alloys look far worse, e.g.,

My motorbike has black rims - they look terrible (below). I'd like to have them redone in a better colour with maybe a polished edge.

they look great

On light coloured cars black looks good, i had planned on silver rims but the black's come up at a price i couldnt knock back - i like them now.

Mine are not quite black, more of a charcoal, but i do like dark rims.

My Disco is an SE7 and it came with dark charcoal alloy rims from the factory, and I did my Defender in a similar color:



Edit: Can't find a good picture of the SE7 rims, but this will give you an idea:
