Yes, exactly what DT said.
When I heard black wheels I thought NO way! But in that picture they look great.
Try another picture from the side before you commit. If it looks good in two or three pics, then I vote YES!

I think it would look killer with black wheels. We tried polished and black on mine and the gold just seems to work best. But man I dig black wheels.

I say black them out. I blacked out the wheels on my Dart a couple years ago and love it. I get more comments about them than anything else. Plus no more polishing! I wasnt sure how I would like it so rather than powdercoat them I scuffed them with some 600 grit wiped them clean. Used a rattle can and shot a couple coats of black primer then a few coats of semi gloss black. It holds up extremely well. Plus if does get dinged I just grab the rattle and spay another coat. I've only had to touch-up the front wheels once wheel when dumbarses at the tire shop stuck the weights on the outside.

gloss black!! I just did the prostars on my flat black 70 cuda. They look so much better! Definately powdercoat them though. The finish is alot better and the gloss is unbelievable.

Hey guys thanks for all the input!!! Bigdad the car has always had a hockey stick on it, its just painted on and no cubic inch under it. I'm a lil different lol. The question now is for the rear wheel 1. Full black wheel? 2. Polished center and black the rest? 3. Black center and polished wheel?
