[Liquid ITS 24]

Curious to see if anyone has coated OEM wheels in gloss black or put on any aftermarket gloss black wheels.

This was going to be a project of mine down the line once I get my suspension dialed in the way I want it with the stock aspec wheels. I saw someone on here powdercoated their oem wheels in gold and looked cool too

I found these online and look similar to the stock ASpec wheel but in black. Looks sharp!

No offense but black wheels are way overdone. To me, they just hide the design aspects. Gloss ont really help in anyway.

To each their own! That’s the beauty of individuality. I love seeing all different kids of people’s cars and their expression

Oh no doubt. But thats what I mean. When OEMs are popping on black wheels, you know its overdone. At least Acura recognized this and made the ITS come in gunmetal and gold. My last 3 cars all came with black rims.

They look good on white vehicles

that’s true and the gunmetal suits all of the tegs honestly so well. Would have loved to see a bronze option like the type-s has too though.
Natural human ways they got rid of black wheel options and here I am, paying for custom work to do the same Honda would’ve done from factory ??

Ever since I was a kid I thought it looked the most dope. Right next to blue with gold/bronze or white wheels

I thought that years ago. Now it just looks like hubcaps. You cant make out the style much. Would be fire if it was bronze or silver.

That's just the way things go. Style is cyclical. If something is new and fresh, it will become trendy at some point. I feel like bronze/gold/copper wheels are the new black.

But I maintain my philosophy of do what you like. My wife felt like the flat grey colors were becoming trendy, and she's not wrong- Sonic Grey Pearl is very popular on the Hondas, it's made its way to Tacomas, and I've even seen similar colors on minivans. That did not stop me from picking Arctic Grey for my 718, and I was actually extremely happy with that choice, and I'd do it again. (It had black wheels too)

IMHO the bright blues (boost blue, shark blue, etc.) are also just as, if not more trendy than the flat greys. But it's hard to deny that they look good. There's usually a reason things are trendy.
