Default I've made my decision... going for the bling

have been tossing around the idea of refinishing my wheels but couldn't decide between keeping the centers black, going gunmetal, or fully polishing them. My buddy p'chopped a set of fully polished kreuz 7's onto a DB roadster and I'm sold.

here's the pchop:

here are my rims now:


after seeing the p'chop i know that there is no other option. After finals are done this will be my project until I start work.

I'm bias towards keeping them black, but, I'm a big fan of color contrast and fully polished and DB is a nice match. Go for it! Tell your buddy the calipers are on the wrong side of the rotor...lol.

the blacks are so much cooler, meaner, sexier.

the only time I actually really like the black rims is when I go to the track... they do look pretty bad@ss then. However, I've always had a soft spot for polished rims. I just think they look classier.

I've only ever seen one Z that I thought looked really natural on black rims, and that's Jess' car. LS on black rims is a beautiful combination. All other colors look best with polished or metallic-colored rims, IMO. I say proceed with your plans!!!
