Anyone have a Superblack Max with black rims?
I've been thinking of getting black rims for my Superblack Max and would like to see a picture of one before I purchase some.

Thanks!

Only get them if they have a machined lip. Check out Newman's homepage.

Not a 5th gen, but there's a guy on the DC area forum named "Toolrocks" who has black wheels on a superblack 4th gen.

If you do go with these rims like those I do recommend getting the lip chrome bc then it will be too black, also go for nothing smaller then 19's black rims are always gonna look smaller then they are.

i never thought i would ever get dark rims but the only reason i got those is because of the polished lip. toolrocks has all black rims on his car and it just doesnt appeal to me. my advice is definitely get a set with a polished lip if you do decide to get dark rims.

ps. i just recently sold those rims to Delio.

Just drive around for about 6 months without ever washing your wheels. It will have much the same effect.

On a 4th gen... but you can see how well gunmetal matches a dark paintjob.
