Opinions on new wheel color

[LD-Ordie]

Thinking about changing the color of my wheels to a gloss black and adding trim rings. General thoughts would be appreciated.

Are trim rings created equal, or are some sources better than others. Thanks

I say leave it. I like the way your car looks now. However I understand sometimes we just want to change things up.

i say no.. especially no trim rings.. car looks great with body color wheels.. for me black wheels would look out of place on it.

I think black wheels are way over done. I love the body color wheels. Your car is beautiful

I am generally not a big fan of body color wheels, however, with a yellow car, more black than it already has could lead to the dreaded bumblebee look.

Once again, you are correct.

I vote to leave the yellow. I think it looks great. If you are undecided just buy a can of that peelable spray paint in black. If it doesn’t look right to you just peel it off. If it looks good to you paint or powder coat them permanently.

Do whatever you want, but for god's sake, no trim rings!

Your car looks great as is but I totally understand the desire to change it up. Since you are on west coast many of the Les Schwab tire centers have a kiosk in showroom that you go to the screen type or pick year of your car and it’s color and you can put any color or style wheel on you want digitally. It loads the pix so you can look at it. It was a great tool for me when I could not figure out what wheel to put on mine. It is amazing software, you might check it out?

I'd ditch the wheels in lieu of plain steelies but keep the body color.

 

[LD-Ordie]

Thanks for all the thoughts, with some being spot on as maybe I'm just looking at a change...... Now thinking it's best to leave it alone. Or maybe later, buy something aftermarket with tires that could easily be swapped out. Of course, something old school traditional

If anything paint them Rally Wheel silver and keep the covers. No trim rings

 

[abodyjoe]

the red line doggies would probably improve the look. or even the 68 style

 

[pishta]

you wont find trim rings for those deep (looking) rims. How about just running chrome lug nuts? Show off more of those yellow rims.

I have a set of black steelies with caps for my blue car, but they are black only because I also run them on my yellow roadrunner, that came with black wheels.
I would NOT redo your wheels in black, (never really liked the black wheel look on most cars) especially since your current setup looks so good.
I would get another set of wheels to change to, just to change things up. I like the above rallye wheel suggestion.
(I'm assuming you still have sbp) edit: maybe not, with cop wheels. If you have bbp, you have LOTS more wheel choices.

Leave them yellow.
Trim rings? May as well start dressing as Elton John.

 

[BasinStBlue]

Leave that poor Dart alone, LOOKS KILL!!!

The matching wheels look better than the Rally's.

Would he have doggystyle wheels then?

saw a set of "cop wheels" like that last week at a show with rallye cone style (70-71) centers and they looked great... more food for thought
