That makes sense, I know how much you hate black wheels.

I'll never EVER like black wheels, especially GLOSS black! My stock wheels have what's called "pearl black" accents, basically a satin black and because it's mixed in with the machine finished face its tolerable.

When the wheel is black the design is just washed away, only when your really close can start to "see the wheel". The other thing about them is how to clean them, even the most hard core "geek" would struggle with them, so imagine John Q public I've these things fresh out the carwash and when you have multiple areas where it's not clean, just looks like sh!t The final issue is swirls! These finishes are usually soft and so easy to mar and I'll ever EVER understand the allure of this

I'm the same, on the right vehicle they can look good, but it is a bit overdone these days. The wheels currently on the FJ are powder coated, so have a satin finish. They can be a real pain to clean. I am thinking of switching back to the original alloys.

The wheels I've never liked, and would never put on any vehicle, is chrome, and I mean full chrome. Chrome wheels end up looking like cheap chrome plastic wheel covers. They just always look fake to me.

Ya....I'm gonna pass on the chrome myself......most have a cheap plating job and unless it's a garage queen 2 years and they are trashed...

my 2011 Silverado had a lot of chrome...looked good for 2 years and I couldn't keep up and all failed
