His lips are already polished........... I think the rims look great as is. but doing them black would also break up the 'bling' I reckon. You'll get them painted professionally, yes? :wink:

Keep them as they are, although if they were mine, I would be tempted to do the centres white!

+6 would be a crime to ruin those wheels.

i like black centred wheels but i would not do it to them. if you are paying for it to be done you might as well do it on a set of wheels that need a refurb and not brand new ones
