Default wheel color opinions

i should be picking up these wheels sometime sunday afternoon for my car...from what i know the clear is peeling a little bit on the rims so i was thinking of re-powdering them.....was thinking of doing all black or trying to keep the machined lip and do the inner of the rim black...or should i just redo them in silver....any opinions would be appreciated...

I personally like the all black with the machined lip look. Though it might be too much for your car. Try going to tirerack website and look at some neons with black rims and see what you think.

I say leave the machined lip and dish, and have the spokes powdercoated in a graphite color.

I think the inside would be nice black and leave the lip chrome.

I personally would keep them the way they are, just re-coat them.
