*PICS *Black FX45 on black out chrome lip 24s

Hey guys,
I was at the dealership today and I saw a BLack FX45 with 24s, Very nice ! It has black rims with a chrome lip. I wanted to get my 20s blacked out with the chrome lip still on. What do you guys think?

That does look pretty bad ***, but I'd stick with gunmetal too. You can't really see the spokes cause they blend into the shadows of the wheel well (might be different in direct sunlight tho). So what's the point of getting fancy rims if can't really see the spokes?

His offsets are terrible for this front. They stick out too far from the fender wall.

I dunno about putting 24s on a FX. What I would do is go no more than 22s and lower the thing. Make it look like a lowered sport wagon instead of an SUV.

I have a Navigator and my wife and I are putting 23" Akuza Bounce. Plus lower it just a little so it will fill the wheel gap more.

i can't decide between gun metal or black, Gun metal is a little shinny right?

Black looks cheap in my opinion. At least on that FX. It reminds me of the plastic wheels like on Knight Rider. Very 80's

gunmetal. I don't think the black rims match well with the FX; it seems like they just don't stand out.

gunmetal is exactly that, the color of guns. perhaps even a little lighter. there's also permastar. there's a coupe on this site that had his coupe 18's permastarred. those look hot also. i have a black sedan, and i've actually been trying to convince myself to get 18" mods for myself.
