How do you like them? How do they hold up. I have a buddy who had black wheels on his truck and he said he hated them. They got scratched and when they do, you can see it really good. But he did do some offroading.
So basically Im asking if your black wheels get scratched easy.

mine dont and i had em since they 1st came out. i did hit one of my rear wheels real good with a lug wrench and it made a nice lil dent, but the paint didnt come off. they still look good and i have a dirt/rock driveway. although they need some polish and wax here soon.

I have yet to see those on a car. I think they look awesome. I never really liked the Cobra R wheels until that version came along.

I like my wheels.. But sometimes I feel I want something more chromy? Like 03 Cobra's But then I fall in love with them when you see the refection in a window driveing all u see is the polished lip.. Mine are 4 months old and daily driven and they hold the shine well.. yet I clean them 5 times a week!

Yea, I dont really like all black Cobra R's either. But the lip and rivets make it look alot better.

Black wheels are by far the easiest wheels I've ever had to take care of.

Same here. I thought I was insane for thinking that (I still may be ). But really ... they're very easy to maintain.

I totally understand how you feel (been there, done that with previous cars). I chose black for my car because (IMO) chrome or polished wheels don't look right with a silver paint. Every color looks good with them except silver paints. Neither do anthracite, as it would be "off-colored". I love them.
