black rims on a black car, bad idea?
 

i was thinking of putting black rims on my car even though it's black. is this a bad idea experts of everything in the world on gfy?

I always hate black rims...looks like a poor person with no rim covers...thats how I always see em

I don't see anything wrong with that

maybe if they were 15 inch and dirty

Personally i wouldnt do it

Something like this on a black car would look good

Personally, black on black in that way would make the car look cheap.. kind of like a "welfare" mobile lol

Good point :1orglaugh

yeah thats what i'm talking about, just not that style and i'm trying to find a good one with no chrome at all almost. but a little chrome wont hurt

now that, on the other hand, would actually look good since the entire rim is not black.

I agree with Ice.

One thing I know looks wicked, is a pure white car with black rims and low profile tires. Sick shit.

What kind of car is it that you're thinking about putting black rims on?

no way. nice 19's chrome with thin spokes, perhaps 5 or 6 star..now that would look nice :2 cents:

What type of car?

it's a cadillac and i was thinking at least 20" and i wanted black

i kind of liked this one

:pimp

Only if you plan on removing all of the other markings on the car. Like the stickers, and the logos etc.

i think i did most of that already except on the back where it has the northstar and cadillac name

It probably depends on the car. A friend of mine drives a BMW 745 and he has black 22's with the lip of the rim silver. It looks pretty slick.

Ive never seen black rims on a caddy...If you do go black, get some with a thick polished rim, maybe 2 inches, breaks up all that black. Nice rim size tho! :thumbsup

what do you think of this one in a 20?

Depends on the rim, depends on the car!, I like the idea.

that's pretty slick man. those get my vote

ya me too nice rims :thumbsup

Not feeling it.hey man, rims are yours, it whats makes ur ride ur ride...(but get a BIG ASS polished lip)

Black on black is hot ... i love it .. i had a Black Range Rover with Black Rims a few years back and always got compliments .. I've been looking at the Cadi's .. I was thinking Black on black or white with chrome .. not sure yet.

I say Go with the black ..I think the Chrome is getting plaid out .. everyone has chrome rims ..:2 cents:

something like this ..(couldn't find a larger pic)

thats exactly what the car looks like and i was thinking black rims might be hot

Those are nice...Digi, where do you live? Im in the NY/CT area, and you just dont see many black rims on the nicer cars, just usually the civics/gti's etc. ricers

these rims are so fucking ugly that i could puke all over my screen :throwup :repuke

chrome rims in general have that effect on me

texas cadillac's over lexus!

Thats cause your German, you have no taste :1orglaugh j/k

Those are nice, but too thick, imo i just think a nice slim 5-6 star maybe 1 inch think is so classy. The ghetto cars around here have that thick chrome rims, looks like they have chromed sewer caps wrapped in tires.
