Coat them black or not?
So I got these rims for my Z. I'm thinking of getting the center piece powder coated. The rim is a 2-piece, so I can remove the middle piece without a hassle.
Just need some opinions.
What do you think would look best for current setup? Thanks.
Current
Or Black

^yeah. i'm thinking about it. But riding low in Chicago is hard to get around without scraping the lip. We have too many speed bumps and potholes...
