To floss, or not to floss, that is my question!

What do you guys think. My wife and I are getting all black wheels in the future, but for now what do you think? Steelies or hubcaps?? Thanks for any replies.

Thanks man. I need to get some more pictures up. These were actually taken in almost complete darkness, so I had to photoshop them. Any more suggestions would help.

Does anyone know of a nice, clean looking ALL black wheel thats not expensive? (I'm a young Airman on a budget)

Hubcaps. The steelies make it look like you are driving around on spares.

Thanks alot for the suggestions. I guess rockin the steelies is just an individual decision, seeing as how half hate it, and half love it. I can't decide which half I'm on.

i took off the hubcaps within my first hour of ownership. over a year later. still no wheels. to me wheels are overrated. i'm much happier having no wheels and a bunch of go fast and stereo/individual goodies. versus the other way around.
