Right. Gunmetal is awesome on anything and black wheels uhg......... welcome to 2001. It's time people get more creative than blacking something out, which is a move people with no vision do.

"Hey I painted my wheels black"

"Well......let that creativity flow, Scooter"

Damn! Brian you don't like the black ? haha

I am a little bit tired of the wheels already , so instead selling them , i am thinking about sending them back to the Forgestar and have them redo everything black.

I am going to try the black and see how it goes.

Thanks for all the inputs and keep them coming!

Omar, between the two choices...I'd go BLACK, but instead of purple calipers I would go with a Synergy Green or a Sunburst Orange so they "pop"! I think that would be eye catchy? Just my 2 cents tho...Either way keep us posted.

Thanks Steve you don't think those 2 colors will look weird on the White car? haha

I will see if my friend can photoshop the caliper one more time with the colors you are suggesting.

Coming from a person who owns black wheels, you really don't get to see the details from a few feet away. I'm changing mine up next year or getting new wheels all together.
