Black Alloys

[Steve916]

Hi All,
Just wondering if any of you guys run black alloys on your 75's. I am toying with the idea and it would be nice if anyone has any photos/ opinions or recommendations. I have a 2005 connie in Grey paint LEF and think black alloys could suit.

Not a 75 but I've got these on my lowered ZT ;)

Thing is for me though the 75's have smaller rims and bigger arch gaps; IMO these hinder the looks of non-OEM alloys or non-original colour wheels

Everyone to their own though :)

Refinishing alloys in black is very dependant of the body colour,quite a few members have done this and achieved good results.

Hopefully a few pictures would help to make your mind up.

Thanks Dan. Looks nice :}
Totally agree Pab about the body colour has to be right too. A few more piccies would be good :)

mate if you like it and you feel good driving it and you are prepared to spend money and time to achieve who gives a **** wether everyone else likes it..we do our own cars in our own way and the end result is something very personal.
i personally dont like it , but i would not dare tell someone how to improve there car its apersonal thing.
me and a good friend i have gained on here get on very well and meet up for the slightest excuse both of us love the marque.
he has a zt esate he is highlighting with x power green and loves his powerflow exhaust.
i have a conny which i have dyed every black plastic part you can see inside sandstone with stubies dye and added "jamieson" door cappings and extra chrome.
point is my mate picture in your head how you want it to look and go for 100% good luck and best of british etc etc...
