Okay!
Last Fall i Bought some new rims IKON GT5 in Hyper black.
After a test fit, I really like the wheel design but i'm really not sure of the color...
Nothing on my car is flashy, no chrome, no light grey...
So what you guys think about color match them with the car.
All black with a titanium grey lip
or
All black and keep the polished lip
or
Keep it like this



What you guys think?

im biased, cuz i HATE anything that has a polished lip..

i say matte black lip/dish, gloss black spokes, or vice versa.. or solid black.

I say paint them to match the top, darker part of the car, with no lip.

Personally I think polished lip is the best.
These wheels cost $500 shipped from Machiii.net

I really liked your last rims.

I have to say either all black, or black with grey lip.

Stay away from the polished.
