I don’t mind the black wheels I just don’t understand why they are all bedazzled with silver bolts on faux beadlocks! I suppose it gives the wheel some contrast but it’s hard to find a wheel with out them unless you’re going forged and that’s an entirely different bag of worms!!

I don’t think I’ll ever go back to polished. Once you go black....

Hey, beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Otherwise fat and ugly people would never get love.

Black is an excellent color for the winter tire wheel set!! Just rattle can them in the spring and you have that new wheel look all over again!!

chrome wheels to me scream 90's-early 2000's..this goes for cars too. Back then it was deep dish, now its concave and solid colors. Oh well, each to their own. I like my black wheels with contrasting machined aluminum areas. I don't mind chrome but my truck has enough "bling" with all the chrome it came with already (this will go body color eventually).

I so agree!! You can’t find plain black wheels. I’m having a really hard time finding clean 20x9 wheels at the moment.
