Us old timers like chrome (or in this case 'polished' aluminum.) I matched the side emblems to my wheels as the body-color ones just didn't do it for me.

Black emblems--go with black wheels........Silver emblems (IMO)...go with satin silver. Always loved the OEM 'vipers'......'razors' are pretty sweet too....to each his own.

Look at this sweet deal...(and others) on www.viperpartsofamerica.com (No, I don't work for them either:) )

My car exactly, except i have black emblems on the side. Im leaning towards the ACR wheels, plus they have sensors and there wrapped in new rubber. The cal chrome are just the wheels.
I just might keep my 10 spoke seeing they only have 4k miles on them, and have 2 sets.....

Both pretty sweet. Black looks a little better in my opinion. The side emblems being the same color of the wheels kinda makes the choice.

I personally like the chrome or polished better. But that's not to say the black doesn't look good just not my thing.

chrome is soooo yesteryear ........Glossy black wheels with red are cool - my 09 ACR is red/black with gloss black wheels and looks very aggressive .

I prefer 15 inch wheels with Dog dish hubcaps.

Picked up some new ACR black gloss with cup tires for a pretty good deal. Looking forward to putting them on. Payed 4200 which seems like a good price considering the wheels alone are like 3800. It all worked out. If i dont like it, i might keep the polished as well.

A cool and unique look... but then I always thought plain black wheels need something to make them 'pop' on anything but an ACR. Sometimes it seems like changing wheels is less about personalizing the car than making it look like everyone else's!

Gloss black all way.

I'll be switching from my polished factory Razors to black 2013 Sidewinders as soon as I can get my hands on some.
