just bought some boxter wheels from Badcoupe, and painted em black. Since ive recieved many varying comments on the color, what yall think?

i think it's too dark to tell in the pic. the lack of light shows no details on the wheels. take a pic during the day and it'll be easier to decide

I dunno, I was never a fan of black wheels. I've always thought that they just looked like dirty steel rims when a car is moving. Still, looks like you did a good job painting them.

To be honest, I think silver looks better.

I think it makes the car look like a car belonging to Hells angels or some Drug dealer. It's to "musterious" like when the Hells angels take there Mercedes and make all the windows black in a black car with black wheels.

I like black wheels on our cars. My C2's (that I rarely use) are Dark Graphite Metallic. One question, that tire size on the front seems a little off for a 17" front wheen on a 944. I think it should be something like 225/45X17. What rim width are they?

The gloss black paint makes them look like cheap welded steel wheels.

OUCH!! I was going to paint them graphite grey, but i thought they would look funny w/ all the black on thecar. The silver i thought made them look like hub caps. The tires that were on the wheels were really big, 255,50's on the front, on a 7" rim!! 275's on the back!! yeah, it is kinda a tall tire, im going to buy them for the back too. They didnt make that tire in 225 in that height. I think they fill the wheel well and when i lower it, everything will be tucked nicely.
