Driving in NYC, everyone knows, the roads are subpar at best. Every pothole is another bent rim. Anyway, looking in the classifieds I ran across these black powdercoated rims from Tom over on the West Coast, who btw is a real nice guy, great transaction etc, and I picked them up. They were different at first but I'm actually warming up to them.

What do you guys think?

I'm biased, I'll admit....

That being said, I really like the way it looks. I love how the black stands off on the titanium Grey

I love it.....this site is great...just got a quote last week to do the very same thing with my 124's. Glad you posted some pics because I was wondering what it will look like on my TG 545.

Yea I can tell you that it looks much hotter in real life. I only had this one pic on me. I'll try to post some more later on. Also, dont forget you have to get black lugnuts, I was fortunate enough that the shop I went to was good enough to switch out my silver ones.

looks good man, I personally would prefer a color contrast like a silver wheel but the black wheels look nice too.
