I love black wheels. Every econo box and suv has silver wheels. However I am only 60 years and 120 months old.

Thanks! They are the Cervinis Stalker scoops.Not to sidetrack a thread but here goes... Normally I don't like to add non-functional body parts, but those fender scoops are bad-ass and really make the rear quarters look better. Where did you find those?
Thanks! They are Carroll Shelby Wheel Company CS-3 20x9.5 front / 20x11 rear and weigh 28 and 29 lbs respectively. While the center caps were nice, they didn't go with the color theme of the car. After looking around and doing a lot of photoshopping, I decided the Ford Oval in red would look sweet. They look even better in person. Here is a closer pic.Nice touch with the red center caps.
Very nice. But those lug nuts are a little over the top. Just kidding.Thanks! They are Carroll Shelby Wheel Company CS-3 20x9.5 front / 20x11 rear and weigh 28 and 29 lbs respectively.

Yep, it's not just how dark some wheels are, but how full-looking that makes a difference to me. For example while I definitely prefer silver over black, the 15-17 PP silver wheels looked too busy to me. I like darker better when there's less spokes and the car is darker.Not a fan of black and prefer to see those PP Brembo calipers and massive discs behind the wheels
Agree they go well with your car. Now you just need a black 5.0 emblem.Mine are aftermarket from previous owner.
I’m 59 and I like my wheels. Love the unpainted bead and inner mill
And they match the top, interior, rocker panels, grill and valance
OK, so there is no separate senior folder yet (and maybe there will never be), but this question is targeted at 50 and up owners. Do you like black wheels? It's fairly obvious they are more popular with the younger crowd.
I did not like them at all when they first became prevalent, but they have grown on me somewhat on cars in certain colors. (Mean look with magnetic.) Even so, I would only consider gloss black because you know when they're clean. Also, mesh style or any intricate spoke pattern seems pointless since it's difficult to see except up close. Black PP1 wheels come to mind. In most cases a charcoal or graphite will show the spoke pattern much better while still giving a darker look.
