    That thing is sick! I spent a few hours at the LA Auto Show last week, and honestly, the SLR Roadster was the best thing there. Congrats Manny!

    I think the black wheels are out of style already. I think those stock SLR wheels look great as is. :)

    interesting you asked this afternoon I was contemplating if I should I bet it would look good if I would do it just like this pic... I think with my red stiching it will look great with the red painted on the wheels. any idea who did these wheels?

    It's personal preference over "style"...

    Theres a guy who had one on Viper alley, a silver one. Do you know anything about that car? I think you could just take the rims to anyone who powdercoats and have them do it.

    I rather take it to one that has done it this style, I guess if they do all type of wheels then they could do these.. just want to make sure its a perfect clean job...

    I think the original wheels look great against the black body. I'm just glad it's just not the standard OC benz silver :)

    there are several options I can think of for those wheels, but I think leaving them the way they are would look best. If you want to have them powder coated I know a place that does show cars and custom wheels in Azusa. They can do all sorts of crazy stuff to wheels.

    I think the car is SICK as it sits ... the black wheels may look good, but they won't look better.
