black or gray?

[creekwood08]

This is my car. Its time to get some new rims after i found out my buddy would get me a set of rims. Im just lookin at some boss 338, ridler 695, or the eagle alloy version. These rims will not be permenant just get me around so i can clear my big brakes. First thing is after doing a search I saw that the valve stem on the 338s seems to be in the wrong place and can get in the way of the brakes. A person said that they talked to boss and they are redoing the wheel to move the stem out of the way but does anyone know if they have changed the wheel to clear the brakes? Second is that my car is gray with black stripes but I dont know which color to go with. Bloss black with polished lip, gray with polished lip, or flat black with a dull lip. Ive got a pic with a car my color with the gray but couldnt find the black. what you fellas think? if i went with black it would have the same bs of the gray ones of course

Flat Black

i think all of them would look good but i dont know which of the 3 would look best. So many choices The gloss black would go with the stripes and contrast with the gray but the gray rims would go well with the gray paint and i think the flat black one might do both.....i kinda like the polished lip but i guess that means less time id be cleaning and polishing........

i did a quick photo shop. Not great but first time ive used it.

Flat black with polished hoops! Or gloss black with polished hoops. Gray will blend into the paint color and will be boring.

Yea I like em both......the black does stand out but im afraid they will stand out maybe to much and the gray will go well with the paint but like you said it might blend in. I kinda am leaning toward the black but i dont want to get em and be like wow to much of a contrast and the gray might be a little more of a safe bet......I really shouldnt care that much i guess since they wont be on the car for a real long time.....just wanting it to look good. thats y im asking you fellas thanks for all yalls input.

Them are good looking rims. Id love to get some like that but my car is in need of alot other things so sweet rims will have to wait a little bit.

[jgpclone]

Those rims look great on the car. Yea im going to try to find a set of matte black with a polished lip instead of the dull looking lip like i have a link of. I think im gonna pull the trigger after rod run this weekend.

I think the matte black would fit that car perfectly!

I'm not usually fan of black rims (especially all black), but with your body color, I think flat black with polished lip would look awesome.
