Black rims on black car
 
Does anyone on here have this setup? If so can you post some pics? I've been thinking of the black Kazera's, but the lettering is yellow :(

the yellow lettering would look cool if you painted the calipers yellow too...jsut a thought

there are some black on black here...search for them. I think one thread might be called black on black on black or something like that

I was thinking about the black and yellow earlier with the calipers and interior and such.....but i think my theme for this car is going to be "stealth". The lines on this car are so amazing, and I'm in aviation, so it seems a perfect fit. I'll run a search though and look for some pictures...thanks Gambit!

Found the guy that painted his stock rims black

Have you looked at dark grey or a little off-black?

TxRx8 02-11-2005 10:40 AM

Look for the "black on black on black" thread. That has to be the best black 8 I've seen thus far.

N8theGr8 02-11-2005 12:35 PM

The rims on your car arent black? They look great! As far as a design though Im looking for something a little less "spokey"......maybe something like the stock rims only black like the picture Gambit posted. Definatly sweet though Dark8! I'm looking for the black on black on black thread now.

BB8guy 02-11-2005 01:07 PM

hey Dark8, thats pretty much how my car looks! but my rims are black with a polished lip =D looking good ;)

Tamas 02-11-2005 01:13 PM

I dunno folks... those black rims look like steelies to me - sorry, I don't think they look good, but it's a matter of taste of course.
Black rims with polished lips would be better I think. BB8guy, care to post some pics of your ride?

Those are my auto-x 17x8 wheels. I wanted a more "stealth" look for racing. Now for the window tint....

BB8guy 02-11-2005 03:30 PM

Yeah mine are 17x7.5... they're just for winter anyways.. as i didn't have a choice of getting steelies... but even if i did, the steelies would have costed pretty much the same as the rims i got.. which are "high quality" knock offs by BSA.

I'll post some pics once my brother transfers them off his camera, and i figure out how to post pics

All black looks good I think. Even better if it has a fat silver lip

RotorManiac 02-11-2005 04:13 PM

this must be the ugliest black 8 I've seen...

TR1GGERx1 02-11-2005 04:23 PM

lol i like black rims but not the stock oem like this

my10ae 02-11-2005 04:48 PM

Black or dark wheels look great on black, but I too also like a polished lip to offset the darkness. :)
