    Last fall, when I sold my OEM 360 modular wheels the buyer had a set of 3 piece wheels that he traded + cash. I figured it would be a fun spring project.. These started as black center and chrome lip rims. I had them refinished with semi gloss centers and black polished lips.The end result exceeded my expectation...and I am torn between keeping these or my gunmetal OEM 430s.

    What do you think?

    There are those who will say that black rims are all played out. I still like them though and I think they look great on your car but I am not sure how I feel about no center caps!

    Funny... I just went back to hyper silver on my daily after running black for the last 4 years. Here is a close up of the center caps. I have yellow Ferrari center stickers for these but felt there was too much pop w the black wheels.

    I dunno...yellow calipers would be good company to some stock (or repop) center caps IMHO.

    Love it. Ive been putting black rims on my cars for 15 yrs. I dont think its something that will get played out anymore than tinted windows, spoilers, etc
