I'm 67 and absolutely HATE black wheels. When I ordered my 2018 GT PP, I paid more to ditch the black wheels for these ones. I love the look.

I'm with you - absolutely hate black wheels, they offer poor colour contrast, and look drab & dull.

I got outta my silver stock OEM 18" wheels yesterday for 19" PP1's in gloss black. Here's a side by side (well over under whatever actually lol).

I‘m 50 and my 19 came with the optional 19” polished wheels. I have been wanting to switch to black. I wasn’t a huge fan at first but they grew on me. I’ve never had black wheels, but I think it would make my calipers pop more.

Those bright 5 spokes look awesome.

I’ll trade you.

62 and I have the PP1 wheels, not real fond of black on red.

I think so too, BUT they are only an 8.5” wide wheel so the fatest tire I can use is a 255. I want to go wider.

Black wheels are much nicer with dusty brakes, and also to touch-up... but they only look nice in certain cars, and colors. I don't think it's an old thing, but more of a taste thing. Yeah, your tastes can change with age, but nothing radical.

56 here. I like both and a lot depends on car color, theme and stance. IMHO my car would look horrible with anything but darker wheels to fit the theme. I also like that the darker wheels aren't a shiny object that can distract other drivers (kidding).

From the days of Cragar Five Spokes with N50-15 bias ply tires on the rear (those were my favorite in HS)

Not opposed to either in the correct format...
