im not hating at all. i would have just left them alone thats all. i was going to get those same wheels in 20's for my IS, but the lip size killed it for me. 1.5on snetterton and 2.5 on my lexani. i had black rims before too, but with a polished lip, i changed because polish lip is hard as hell to upkeep. mirror lip just needs a wipedown. i have had a lot of negative things said about my lexani lss-10 wheels, but i think its the best set i have had thus far. and everywhere i go i turn heads, espically from all the other luxury car drivers, and im lovin every min of it. enjoy your new setup and do what you like, not what others think.
I didn't think you were hating... That's why I said that some people just aren't a fan of all black wheels. Yeah... I wish they had a 2" lip, but after seeing them on some other cars, I felt that they'd look good and they came out as good as I thought. Also, I don't have rubbing issues haha But for sure, man... Go with what you like and now what others think is the way.
I figured I'd share them on here because it's difficult to find a decent mesh wheel that's all black that's not going to be super cheap or break the bank. Also, I only found one set painted all black on a BMW while googling pics of them, so I figured I'd share in case anyone else is looking to do all black mesh wheels,which, I did find a thread on that topic. I didn't take it wrong, but thanks for clearing that up. Everyone is allowed to give their own opinion

IMO that setup looks very sick, love the gray with black rims, dont understand how others dont see the beauty of it!
Ive got the same color IS, and planning on painting my stock rims black, lowering it on H&R springs, and painting my calipers blue....OR red...? Then adding some carbon fiber bits, and get my windows even more tinted... would look sick IMO
