Default New shoes?

so i bought these, and i never thought i would ever get black rims on any car, but i did, and its starting to grow on me. Could just be the fact that im excited to have new car goodies, but im not sure. My dad and gf hate the black, a few others like it, but i honestly can't be the judge until i actually put some tires on, which i think im gunna do tomorrow. What does everyone here think?

Go with your instincts. Black wheels are ugly.

Personally, I don't really dig black wheels on cars. Buy hey, you never really have to worry about cleaning off brake dust!

That said, I love the RPF1s because of their lightweight and F1 inspired design. You can pretend you are driving a McLaren!

I'd go bronze with Suzuka. But then again, I'm a huge fan of bronze wheels.

no no stay black

they look good on the suzuka, it's such a bad color to work with in the first place.

bronze would have been my first choice too, but i already have bronze rims on my blue civic, i kinda wanted to try something new. now black wasn't my first choice, but i really liked the rpf1's and they don't really come in too many special colors, and the price i got em at was a big factor too. like i said though, powdercoating isn't totally out of the question
