I really like black wheels, easier to keep clean. But I will say I like a little color added to them.

For me it had to be 100% black for the effect I was going For!

It was surprisingly hard to get 100% black rims! they all had silver/chrome accents...

Silver lug nuts or center cones wouldn't have been good, in my opinion if your going for a full black look as far as wheels, I'd definitely go for the black lug nuts and paint the cone...

just doing your spare is a cheap and easy way to see how you like it.

i think the effect might work better with brighter colored Jeeps, like red, orange crush, mello yellow, a brighter blue

fir darker colors I'm not sure...although a black JK the silver lug nuts would ruin a 100% blacked out look

Just my $ .25 (inflation)

When our pollen season is over, I'll be dipping my wheels metallic anthracite (dark gray).
