Sevas S55

Hey fellas i'm about to pull the trigger on a set of S55's and I wanted to know if I should go black w/ chrome lip(leaning toward it cause my car is OB) or chrome. Your opinions are appreciated. Thanks.

ummm.......jeez, thats a hard decision. Like the person mentioned, above. Black on Black is REALLY common now 0'days.....and Chrome on black is something i would expect from a 300c or something more bling bling......for me its really a toss up but i have seen some cars with chrome that "DO" look good. BUT!, im gonna vote for the black w/chrome....its a bit more sporty..... GOOD LUCK with ur decision....cant go wrong either way

That exactly what I originally thought. Black on Black is getting kinda played but, it still looks hot. I've had polished wheels on black cars before which would be similiar to chrome and I loved that look. You guys sure aren't making it any easier.

Your right. If I did go chrome I think that the style of the wheel(sporty design) would make it look less blingy. Thanks for your thoughts bro.

Sevas S-55's are good looking wheels. But they are a bit too heavy and 1 inch too big for my taste.

Very good looking wheels though

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
neither. throw on a set of light weight bronze TE37 on CE28N's. bronze looks great on OB and you will get some performance benefits from the light weight wheels.

Guess you have heavy volks then, because the rear almost reach 27 lbs on the Sevas S55. Well, compared to OEM 19's which are around 19-21 lbs, I guess thats pretty heavy.
