Thread: Rim opinion

I've been thinking about getting new wheels for my 04. I need snow tires on it for winter, which would go on my stock wheels because I don't want to run my chrome 077s in the winter. I'm thinking it may just be better to get one set of wheels I can run year-round (although I do love how the 077s look). So, to my question...I was looking at Tire Rack and was thinking to maybe go with a black finish wheel. Curious on opinions of black vs polished on a black CompG. I saw these 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP and thought they looked kinda slick. Just wondering if one is better/easier to keep looking nice (black vs polished, that is).

Just curious, if you're viewing the rims you want for your car (which is black) on tirerack, why did you select a silver car?

i dont think his car is black?

It says in his post and his sig that it's a Black CompG. Am I missing something?

Not bad, but not a personal favorite

black + black = played out.

black screams and begs for chrome. i say stick with the tried and true.

It looks good, there's really no other "theme" that's not played out.

Mine are Exel RH-5's

The were out of production for 18 months or so but I believe they brought the line back in some amount.

Huh....that link pulls up the black version for me. Maybe my browser has it cached. You can change the color from the dropdown. Maybe I should just keep the stockers and get snow tires.
