Pic Request- stock rims, painted black

Anyone have any pics of the stock sport wheels painted black?

Also, for those of you that have 5% tints, how is the visibility at night?

Black Chrome...To date the best looking black OEM sport wheels I've seen. Can't get any better than this IMO.

I think someone else had powder coated the OEM 18's as well, I'll try to find the thread.


Here's the link:

I'd like to see stock 17's painted black. I need winter wheels and have thought about that look.

5% has to be harder to see out of at night, period. 95% of light is blocked with 5% film. Honestly, I am surprised this forum blocks conversations about other hazardous driving activities but allow us to talk about installing 5% film or tinting your windshield. 5% is illegal and dangerous. That's my 40 years old, father of 2 kids rant.

I have it

I have a Black g35xS with sport wheels painted black and they look amazing, I got nothing but skeptism from friends before i did it but after i did it no one had anything bad to say about it. As for tints don't go lower then 20% cause you won't be able to see anything with 5's

I had 5%tint on my MX-6 a while back...initially I couldn't see anything at night...i mean you look out and see black, but with time I got used to it...and even though the car looked awesome, I will never do it again. It was too dangerous and I had many close ones where I would almost hit a pedestrian as they were crossing the road, and you couldn't see them as you were turning.
