Default Go Black of stay with the Bronze

I have a black 350 and I just bought a set of Work Emotion CR kai in bronze but can't really decide if I want to keep them the way they are or go black? So feedback would be great, and you thoughts. Black on black is hot but so is bronze!

thanks for comments

Jonathan

I personally hate bronze wheels... spent too much of my younger years watching all the wannabe crxs and integras rolling with them to give them any respect now. At least the black wheels have a better contrast aspect to them or color matching if you have your car in black. Too each ther own tho, just my personal opinion.

bronze is best on black with those particular wheels.....if you paint them black you might as well be painting your stock wheels black (when they're moving they won't look like anything cool).


IDK....black 19" with a polished lip would look best IMO......or TIME ATTACKS!!!! WOO HOO

Bronze wheels looks awesome on black Z.....Black on black gives you very aggresive stands..

Everyone has their opinion right? IMO, black on black looks cheap . There needs to be a contrast to the wheel, i.e. polished lip or the red outline on the time attacks

BTW, time attacks are my least favorite wheel. Then again people would say the same about my VS-XX in gold with polished lips.

I would keep them bronze, it looks clean on your black Z.

anyone that says anything bad about your wheels is crazy.

as for the OP, i'd keep them bronze. you need to keep some contrast.

These wheels also come in gunmetal finish, don't they? IMO, black Zs look great with hyperblack or gunmetal wheels. A pure black wheel, especially a high gloss finish, is a lot of black and tends to disappear.
