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?

It works! I am a fan of dark rims in general, but sometimes it just doesn't work. I like it, I think the tint helps, overall it is nice, subtle!!!!

Looks great! I really like that color on a car - the black rims just make it look better.

Glad everyone seems to like them as much as I do....

Also I really appreciate the nice comments Peter, it was a great transaction all the way through. I enjoyed dealing with you. I'm really glad it worked out.....
