DriverzInc: Rushforth Night Train in matte black
 
We had a customer bring in a set of Rushforth Night Trains powder coated matte black. I thought you guys might want to check them out.

I agree.... the hardware with the chrome lugs looks good. Breaks up the all black wheel a little.

Yeah, I find it hard to resist the temptation to put an all black wheel on an all black car. Good thing I've done it, and gotten it out of my system.

The wheels look great on the table, but I'm not happy with them with a tire on them, and on the car. You end up losing a lot of the wheel depth, and everything starts to look too blacked out and the design of the wheel goes away.

It really is a sinister look though! :mad:

Do you think a polished or brushed lip would fix that Jon? I am thinking of either these or the rated x model with black centers and a bright lip. No hardware either, I don't want to clean around it.:D
Of course my car will not be black either, but still a darker color.

Eric,

The polished lip helps. It adds depth and ties the wheels in with the rest of chrome trim. You still however lose all the design in the wheel and at a distance the wheels look like a black holes. I like the sinister look of the black centers on certain cars.

red or color-matched pinstripe...?

I've always agreed about all black wheels too,they kinda get lost from a distance and look like black holes.

Thanks for the input Jon. Happy New Year!:cheers:
