    need opinions on rims (wheels)

    Do yall think black rims on a silver car would look cool? I like contrast, but I think it might be a little too much contrast...i.e. it might be a bit gaudy. More than contrast, I like subtly...

    Silver on silver seems kinda plain to me though.

    I like the look of those black rims w/the silver trim on the lip on black cars like BMW's, the wide body ones.

    Not sure how that would look on silver though.

    black wheels on silver would look ok, just make sure you have very dark tint.

    Chrome 22's (or whatever the max size that fits without rubbing) on silver is hotter.. black rims on black whips is they only way for me... imo..

    Not to hijack, but what about black rims on a black car? Completely blacked out...headlights, taillights, everything.

    They are speedline motorsports.(as far as I can recall) They are a knock off style of the Z06 rims with a different lip and added rivets.

    They're pretty light, 17x 9.5 in front and 18 x 10.5 in the rear

    my lady had silver rims on her silver honda and it looked very slick..
    but you could swap our for carbon fiber mirrors and and hood to match the rims.

    Sorry bro they kinda look stock ... simply take your car to the best rim shop and put rims beside the car!!
    Rims MAKE or BREAK the look of the car!!

    Black rims look good only on black cars in my opinion. A silver car with silver or chrome rims look really nice, especially if you have dark tints on the window glass.

    Word. I think I like subtle. I think if you have flashy (or black) rims, people will single you out on the road.

    Maybe so but as was mentioned people especially ladies LOVE the shine! Since I put my rims on I have had 9 broads hit me up in two weeks.. Not bad for a set of shiny rims
