So i did my wheels today, at the moment black matte, i think ill put another coat or two later on when i get time to make them glossy, but not sure yet, tell me what you think.

Sorry, not feeling it. In the winter it would not be a bad look as it will help hide the dirt and grime. However, once the weather is better this look loses its appeal. Just look at the photos. Almost like there is nothing there. Where do the wheels stop and the tires begin?

Just one man's opinion.

^^^ Agree. Looks like steel winter rims. It's too much contrast against the white. Perhaps the shiny coat would brighten things a bit.

Yes, I agree with that. Remember running solid black steel wheels many a year for the winters in PA. What it reminds me of. OK when there is snow, slush and rock salt on the roads to make a mess of things. Easy to clean up when they started to rust a bit with a can of Rust-Oleum.

If you feel the need to powder coat or paint something perhaps you might consider the brake calipers. A red or yellow might look very nice with the right wheel treatment.

Plasti-Dip? Can understand the previous reviews and agree to their point. However, it doesn't look bad at all, just not spectacular. Which isn't a bad thing in itself. But yeah, gloss would help a bit.

I actually like the look. I think pics 2 & 3 are pretty poor pictures mainly from the low natural lighting. A glossy finish would be a bit better.

I don't like is the chrome "L" accent. Black that out too.

Sorry, not feeling it either. They look like spray-painted wheels. Plasti-dip may get more professional-looking results.

Dark bronze might have been a better color IMH, but hey it's yours as long as you like 'em

Yep, looks like steelies to me too.

Perhaps, better pictures/lighting would showcase the overall look and your vision better. The current pics are too high in contrast poorly showing the rims.

Not a fan , can't tell where the rims end and the tires begin. Looks like winter rim/tire setup.

To dark for me, I would do like graphite gray or something.

I bet those would look great on an Obesian color ride that's been darked out.

Okay so i redid my wheels, got some glossy finish to them, my car is not clean due to horrible weather we've been having in NYC, snow in the morning and nighttime, rain in the afternoon, its a mess,so as of yet there is no clean shots, but it is what it is so far. LMK what you think, i also did rear deflector because chrome on black&white background didnt look that well, it would stick out
