  4. Black rims contrast nicely with any body colour, I'm a fan....

    This is what I am going to run on my 55 chevy truck...minus the wide whites. Just going black walls.
     
  6. Here is my 56 with black wheels. I used PPG's Concept single stage paint...super gloss straight from the gun!

    I like the contrast of the black and chrome. Simple and timeless.

    Here's mine, '57 Dodge Custom Sierra Spectator. I ran it last year 4 weeks without hubcaps with newly painted wheels, then decided to go back as the wagon looked like a funeral car :D

    Here is mine. It had them (with chrome lug nuts) back in the day and will probably have them when it hits the road again. ;)

    I will probably get rid of the trim rings and get them painted or powdercoated black. Right now it is just rattle can. I will be running bullet caps and bullet center cap.

    i'll disagree. to me nothing says "no bullshit hot rod" like black wheels and black tires, on a true hot rod. and nothing says class and restraint on a custom like black wheels on the right car.

    people have told me to put supremes on my daily, and i choose not to. not because i can't afford it, because i think it looks best the way it is.
