I posted up in the lounge, and was just wondering what other FC owners would think.. Ist of all, Ive always detested black wheels. I think they look like complete garbage most of the time. But, Ever since I saw a FB with black mesh wheels with the polished lip, Ive wondered what I could do to mine, since I already have the BBS 'vert wheels. Here is a pic of my car, then a photoshop of what the black center may look like.



Secondly, these are near mint condition BBS wheels. I paid over $350 for this set, just because of how perfect they are. They still have all of the original BBS valve stem caps, center caps and the center cap tool. I would feel kind of guilty "ruining" this set. Someone may have a better purpose for them than me. WOuld you think I should sell this set then get a crappier set for like $100 or something to paint? Thanks ...

I personaly don't like that look. If you decide you want to sell the BBS's let me know.

PS stick with the vert rims the way they are. The only way of changing the color that I would think might look ok would be to powder coat them.

If I do decide the get the centers black, they would be professionally powdercoated. Sorry, forgot to mention that

First: I think the rims look good as is. I also have the BBS rims on my S4 GXL. I was playing with the idea of powder coating the center black or gunmetal as well.
If I get bored in the future with the look, I might try a black or gunmetal center.

Second: Don't sell them if they are in such good shape since you may not find another set that you will be as happy with.

Try painting first to see if it is what you want then get them powder coated.

Good luck! Kerry
