Senior S550 Owners Like Black Wheels?

67 Years old here. i hate black wheels. Would like to shoot the person that started the trend. Yes I have black wheels on my Hellcat and GT but will eventually swap them out when I buy new tires.

I was only 69 when I got my first set of black wheels—Parnelli Jones Saleens powder-coated. That was where I learned that clay-barring them made a lot of difference. And that I liked the sort of carefree feeling of the silver on the black 2006 car, but not as well as I liked the somber, potent feel of black-on-black:

I like all of your black on black combinations. Thanks for sharing!

Not a fan, but I've sort of gotten used to them. The wheel plays such a HUGE part of the car's look and black makes all the cool details disappear with the tire and dark wheel well, IMO. Also not a fan of chrome wheels, except on older muscle cars (60s & early 70s). Even polished aluminum, for that matter.

I don't mind black wheels... Just NOT the PP1 wheels! (And I am a few years short of 50... )

Tried them and don’t mind them. All subjective opinion.

I'm 67 and absolutely HATE black wheels. When I ordered my 2018 GT PP, I paid more to ditch the black wheels for these ones. I love the look.

Absolutely love those wheels. Would to pick up a set, but they're just too much money right now.

Not much of a fan, but I think it’s because of the northern climate. To me it just looks like you're still driving around with your snow tires on black steel rims.

52 here and I hate them, along with the various shades of almost black. I like the painted silver and polished and chrome. Depends on the color of the car.

55 here and I love them on my Magnetic, if my car came with any other colour I would've changed them over to black anyway so I'm lucky that they came with black.

60 here and was never a fan of black wheels. Looked to me like someone stole your hubcaps but the right color car can make them look great. I`m a big fan of my Roush wheels.

Love black wheels. Can’t stand chrome wheels.

I am glad those aren't the only 2 choices.

For the most part I hate black wheels and find them tasteless. However, once in a while I see a car here with black wheels that looks great. So whatever I guess.

61 here.

Came with black which are certainly ok but would prefer the black emblems with them. Bought a set of the same wheels in silver and like them also...
