I say lose the polish lip. Gives that more agressive look w/o it.

If your planning on adding more black or cf to your car go ahead and make it all black .. if your not going to .. keep the polished lip as it contrasts better with your car .. my 2 cents ..

All black looks like there is an empty space in your wheel well. I think it's illogical to spend all this money on wheels and tires just to make them disappear. Wheels are the most important mod of a car, they should enhance, not disappear.
