I vote yes. I love the "murdered out" look on most cars.

Why not just get some old black steel wheels? Same look, much cheaper.

I'd like to see a side photo of both wheel and car. Not sold on it totally.

I'm sure those would look just as nice as the wheels in the OP.

They're actually exactly the same wheel--Porsche OEM hollow spokes...mine are factory silver, others are painted black

That's what I was wondering... I like the look, too, especially with the polished lip. But, I don't want to be a lemming just following the trend. I'm on the fence, hence the poll
