I have decided on wheels, now I just need to pick a color for the spokes. I have a Black Sand Pearl xB.






There is a pic of my xB (and my Fiero) in this thread:

I think the HyperBlack would look good with your car.

 

I voted for the chrome...that's the exact same wheel I was thinking about.

 

I am between the chrome and the black now...the chrome is like 20% more though...

 

I would have voted for the Hyperblack. They look sort of like mine on my wife's xB... If it's between the black and chrome, I'd say black...

 

TIED! LOL!

 

gotta be the tiebreaker.. I vote Chrome nder circumstances, I think t would be more of a POP factor. Second choice due to price would be Hyper black though.

 

Hurry up and buy something...I want to know what they look like so I can make a decision.

I say go with the chrome, but it's real easy for me to spend YOUR money.

 

no mesh D:

 

I like the first one. Would that be hyperblack? I'd like to vote correctly so as to not nullify the poll.

 

i would go with the black ones.

 

Can't...decide...and...talking...like...Shatner!

I don't think I like the hyperblack, despite how many people have voted for them.

I like the black...and I think it would look good, but it has been done to DEATH and then some...plus, I think the fact that it won't match the BSP will annoy me.

I was thinking about picking up the black and repainting them gold, but I think it will look really cheesy.

There is also a bronze color, but I really dislike it.

I think I am going with chrome, depending on how nice of a price I can find...I NEVER thought I would own chrome rims, but...

 

Found a pic of the hyperblack on a black "car".

 

The problem with black rims is that they tend to blend and you can't see the detail of the spokes... The Hyperblack is dark, but not so dark, you can't make out the details. I think it looks good...

 

That's why I think the HyperBlack would look better with BSP.
The HyperBlack might even make the BSP look more black.

Here try this 30 second PS:
:D

 

Hyperblack looks best. Regular black will look off on a black car. If it is just painted black without gloss, it could look good.

 

Damn you guys...damn you.

I was all decided on chrome, but noooooooooooo you have to post a hot looking PS like that...


I think I am decided.

Black has been done to death, and will look lame with BSP.

Chrome...looks good, and might look good on the car...but $200 more is asking a lot...and it might look ricey.

You guys win...looks like it will be HB! Thanks to everyone for the help, especially you, Roxor!

 

Did you get them yet?

Where are the pics??

 

No problem. Glad I could contribute to your consternation....I mean decision. :D

 

Well,

I have some news.

First of all, I had always thought hyperblack was just a light grey color; hence my resistance to ordering them. I recently found out that it is actually a "black chrome" effect, which is awesome!

I ordered the wheels/tires about 2 weeks ago, but both the wheels (hyperblack) and tires (Nexen N-3000) were on backorder for 2 months. I got a call today that the wheels AND tires came in early for some reason, and they are already on a Fed-Ex truck on the way here. They are already mounted & balanced, and they come with spline drive lugs and centering rings. They should be here saturday or monday, I will post a pic as soon as I can get them on. I will take at least one pic like the PS above so that we can critique Roxor's work.

Ohh, and to preemptively silence the broken records in the audience, I know I need to lower the car, I will be buying the Tien H-techs when they come out.
