GT3 3.8 Wheels Painted Black
I want to paint my wheels black I have a black GT3 3.8, I like the hint of silver in the lip. Is the image below the factory "wheels painted black" option?

Marc,
pic u posted is not factory. factory finish has just a thin 1/4'' strip of silver around the lip. also the inner wheel is still silver. weird way to do it anyway. here's a pic of it.

p.s don't know why pic came up smaller here. i sent u a mail instead.

not a fan of all black wheel. all black makes it looks like spare wheel imo. need to have some silver to break the black between the wheel & tire.

A matter of taste I guess but for me the silver lip looks very nice as it's contrast highlights the black spokes and silver gt3 center cap. Just like your pic Marc. I too am tempted... hmmmm
