Black, whether flat or gloss. Gives the car an overall two-tone look.

Personally I hate flat black and I now have some used flat black Sparco's I just got. I'm going to apply 10 coats of Black Fire paint sealer. Shine and protection.

First ones. When it comes to wheels I'm not a fan of flat black, If the first ones looks like the Hyper Black from Rota they will look great on your green bean

Go with high gloss black. Much easier to get the brake dust off as mine were flat black when I bought them. Made a huge difference and look far better!

Either will look good on the greenies.

I would love those wheels themselves but for the effing double drilling, but I suppose that makes them easier to dump once you get tired of them, or sell the car. [wink]

They are pretty inexpensive, and My wife and I are moving to Mexican coast near Playa del Carmen this Fall, so I will most likely sell it.

Are you hiring your own security detail down there? I love Mexico but won't be visiting until the drug problem down there has been quashed!

Never gonna happen. 99% of drug activity is on West coast. We are moving to the Carribean East side.

Most of Mexico is actually nicer and safer than the US now. People with money and the means are escaping down there before the inevitable happens. Also Mexico is the silver capitol of the world

"The inevitable" can be taken/interpreted as many, many different things/events by many different people, as it ain't ALL one-sided. [wink]

First off do not go flat black unless you like wheels that look like they are constantly coated in brake dust. Second is don’t buy XXR’s unless you like shitty cast alloy wheels. IMO.

There are better options in 15x8 and 16x8 that are flow formed lighter and stronger .

That's why I left it open ended. I'm ultimately here to talk ecoboost.
