from the police? I really want black wheels, but I heard they attract the police like crazy

 

I'll think it'll be the opposite. Wouldn't chrome attract more attention?

 

that's true but black looks different and cops might look at that

 

Perhaps flourescent green wheels?

 

I wouldnt think that they would attract any more attention

 

cops can tell if you have aftermarket rims or not regardless or color

 

I think they do attract more attention...

 

I think that any aftermarket equipment makes the cops think you're a drug dealer.
...or maybe it's just me. But wheels don't attract nearly as much attention from cops as lights, tints, or loud exhausts

 

i think the cops like the black wheels, because almost every squad car rides on the black steelies, and if they see your black wheels and like em, then they might wanna kick your butt n confiscate em to put on their squads! becareful with those black rims! it also gives the cops an image of a big dark chocolate donut! that's why it may cause more attention to police !

 

All 4 times I got pulled over for my tints, I had my SSRs on. I have my rims on for only 5 months out of the year

 

I've never had a problem ever with my black rims attracting the wrong attention. Usually it is the big spoilers that they go after.

 

Like these?

 

seen that on a s13 240sx ... yuck. It was 3 spoke divided in half... i guess its sppose to represent drift or soemthing... caught my attention.

 

Black wont get much attention from cops but i know for sure chrome will

Black rims look like steelies to me?? cops shouldn't bother you at all

I dont even see the point of black rims unless you have a ugly wheel you dont want anyone to see or they are just real lighweight rims..

when cops se chrome they figure your just pimpin...

When they see black rims it gives a racer/ricer look

in my area cops hate loud cars and basicly cars with any racing/performance type parts...

 

Or perhaps a paint job?

 

agree with that

 

i also think flat black rims look like steelies, but when there's a polished lip, like on the one in the maxima.org banner, they can be more easily distinguished. i don't think rims attract a lot of attention. i even see some older people riding around on non oem rims. no biggie.
