Depends on what they're going on... I like solid black wheels (Bullitts, 03/04 Cobras, even FR500's), but on certain models, or even certain colors, they don't look so great.

I liked the wheels on yours Don... That just got me to thinking... What about white FR500's with a black lip, to match the white car with black stripes.

I don't think they exist, you'd have to have them custom painted or powder coated. I had my all satin black Bullitts done at Sullvan's Powdercoating off of S 3rd, right off of 83/84. I'd give them a call.

It can be up there, they didn't want me telling folks how much I paid for mine, LOL, but I'd go in there asking them to do it for <$500. They will do a top notch job for that price. If you know anyone with powder coating equipment, you'll probably get a much better deal as far as cost goes.

depends on car color and style. I prefer black wheels, for a few reasons, but on a red, blue, silder, grey car they look out of place, I dislike chrome, but it does look good on a blue, silver, and red.
satin/machine/antricite look good on all color cars, but again depends on you.
White i think would be a bitch n half to keep clean with brake dust, etc.
White car and black wheels is hot!

I say dont go black. Black doesnt look good on white. I like BBS RK's. They are hard to find though, because they discontinued them.
