Not a fan of the 10 spokes in chrome but when in black they look a lot better.

I'm a fan of gloss black or chrome on the blue cars. I had satin black on my last car (not a viper) and it just never had a wow factor, obviously IMO.

I guess I am from the old school, starting to show my age. Personally I have never been a big fan of the blackout wheels. I prefer the chrome, silver or polished look. But that is only my opinion.

After all is said... it is your car and you do what you like. It really only matters what you're happy with... and not what everyone else likes.

Heck, I drive the Viper Red with H-spoke wheels (I am sure you have heard all the comments on this color and those wheels). I love the way my car looks.

Those rims ... black is better.
Black gloss as mentioned before because you have a gloss paint.

btw... could you park 'er any closer to the door? :lmao2:

Gloss black all the way.

I was never a big fan of the 10 spokes when chromed.

Something else to consider is gun metal instead of black. I still prefer black but this doesn't look bad either:

I've thought about painting my Razors black but I think I'm going to see if I can manage to make a pair of black 2013 wheels fit instead, assuming I can get my hands on some once they become available for order from Mopar (probably next year :().

Are the wheels on the blue viper gun metal?

The wheels are powdercoated gun metal. The color code is actually off of the Ford mustang color grey.

I don't care for the 10 spoke wheels... in any color. If you want a stock wheel, put some 5 spokes on it. I'd lower the car and put some 360 Forged wheels on it, but that's just me spending money.

Just put lowering springs on the car but hasn't been driven yet. I still have to paint the valve covers and deck lid then put it rest the way together. I'm staying with the ten spokes for now I want to buy some track wheels first.

I love how no one has said anything or noticed that the car is missing a few parts. Like passenger door , deck lid, rear bumper

Great jeebus do I want my rims black chromed so badly. Just bought a set of 6 spokes, but can't really justify $1000 to change the finish on a set of rims.


AS FOR OP... Go black. In fact, I have some blacked out 10 spokes I'd gladly sell you as soon as I can get above said 6 spokes on my car. Might be a few months... :)
