Pics of my new shoes..
I got them off an old lady on craigslist for $250 they only have 10k on them and the tires are rated for 60k :)
They have some curb rash on them but ride really nice.
This winter when i take them off I plan to have them powder coated. (My Friends Dad Can/Will do it for free at work.
before i send them off I plan to dremel down the rash to smooth them out.
Do you guys think I should just leave them be or go black and glossy?

looks good in black. i would go with a satin black, not glossy. or maybe flat black. but their your wheels. whatever you do it needs to be lower.

Word, Drop it, put black, And if you can put some matching paint calipers it would look Off the chain ^-^. All in all my opinion again, do what you feel fits you

Don't like the black... at all. Like the silver much better. Looks good with the red calipers.
I like the silver better.. but then again, I'm not a great fan of black rims.
Maybe experiment with a mix of silver-black? Like silver spokes and black outer ring or backwards...

White works, though I still prefer the silver.

white works!? prefer silver!? WHAT!!!!
dude you PS with the flatblack and red calipers looks SWEET! very sporty
I'd DEFINATELY go with flat black, or satin instead of glossy.
But it all comes down to what YOU want. But if it was me, black with red calipers and dropped....smokin

i think i am going to try to trade these suckers for some black rims locally soon :)
maybe go with a 16 so i can fit a fatter tire in there to make the ride smooth/quieter too

they are super heavy wheels ..i notice i grip alot better but yeah i feel the drag difference with them

I vote black, no question. Silver wheels, no matter how nice, always look "stock". Silver is just too common.
TinyGiant

i have the option possibly to get them powder coated.. but i think i want a whole new look :)

dont really want green on the outside.. just inside
everything else on the outside that isnt blue is black so it makes sense to do the wheels too :)
i like the idea of blue calipers too :)

then do blue for the wheels... then gloss black for the calipers... IMO

What about Gold?...that might look pretty good (kind of like a sube though).
