Love it!

[707goat]

Out of all the Quicksilvers I've seen, I must say that yours is probably the best. Mainly because it's different, the CCW's in black are great contrast to silver, not many other colors can pull off completely black wheels like silver can. Second, you made the great choice of putting on the JHP lip spoiler, which is my favorite, and to me, looks way better than stock spoiler, as well as the Commodore lights. Great job! Its very simple yet aggressive! Lovin it man!

[707goat]

BTW, PLEASE dont change anything else about the car, no body kits, SAP front extensions, etc! It would look perfect with maybe a carbon fiber front lip, but i dont think anyone makes one...yet..

[bayarea510]

Sick car! One of the best Quicksilvers I have seen. :thumbs:

[GOATCRUISER]

Again, looks sick

[Chilly Palmer]

Coming from another QS owner ... I think those wheels look aweful in black. The rest of your car is really great, and the wheels are definitely better than stock, but it kinda looks like you have 4 GTO spares on the car.

I just don't think all black wheels look good on ANY car, any color, period.

[PHiL2]

favorite quicksilver ever!

[MoFinWiley]

Thanks guys

Dont let my crappy camera and its poor contrast fool you, there is NO mistaking how much you can see these wheels when veiwed in person. The anodized finish reflects just enough to make the wheels stand out, without looking blingy

and yes, I am happy with it...some people looks chrome wheels, which I cant stand on any car

[stealth06gto]

looks awesome now ditch the other badges on the deck lid!!!

[fuzzybam]

I for one can't stand chrome wheels and I think it looks cool. I should be getting some CCW 505a wheels soon and I was debating on what color to get. I was thinking of black with a polished lip. But I think the completely black wheels look mean. I also dig the JHP lip spoiler. Funny thing is I was looking into picking one of those up and putting it on my car.

[Oh4GTO]

Love it. Thanks for posting the pics. Now Im 150% sure that I am going to do that with my CCWs.

If you are still having a hard time deciding and are ever down my way, shoot me a PM.

[DownwardSpiral]

Looks great

Where would one find that spoiler? (Does it bolt up to the existing holes)

[lokoo]

Ditto! ... looks great bro!

<-----Sponsor on the left...JHP. The JHP LIP SPOILER can be ordered on their site.

+1. Looks awesome!!! The only thing I might add would be the upper roof spoiler from JHP and a carbon fiber splitter if one is ever made. Sick!!!

[HotRodGuy]

****er, I wanted to buy those :D

[Stimeybob]

The wheels look alot better on your car!

[jdo6696]

really nice combo man.

[josh99ta]

That car looks ridiculously good! Dont change a thing (well, I'd shave the letters on the trunk lid but aside from that its amazing).

[AlphaEden]

They look good black, but they need a silver lip, it blends in too much with the tires, almost makes it look like spares...

[MoFinWiley]

I was going to go with a wheel that had a polished lip but both sets I tried to buy were on backorder, then I saw these for sale. In the end I like them more...everybody and their brother has polished lips out here...

[AlphaEden]

meh it needs something to seperate from the tire, it blends together too much

[LSX Performance]

Looks great :)

[tony parker]

Great looking ride. One of the best. I love the evil race car look.

[CSiJason]

Diggin it...

[fuzzybam]

If you are still having a hard time deciding and are ever down my way, shoot me a PM.

I could head down your way this weekend. I'd love to check em out. I don't even think I want the polished lip or anything anymore. I want that sinister look.

[Batsallover]

Looks fantastic. Quicksilver and Black is a great combination. That is the spoiler that should have come stock on our Goats.

[City Goat]

Looks amazing. Add the MWPD front splitter in flat black and the car will be 100% done, I think that would look great on your car.

Really nice job man.

[AZ Power and Sound]

There is a CTS-V here at the shop with those same wheels they do look a ton better in person the ones on the caddy are a dull black so they have a more race car look to them.

Looks good

Polished lips are gay :D ;)


If you didn't grab those wheels I was going to take them and either go gold with a red lip or paint the lip red on the black wheels (like to be different)

[LIVEVIL]

really really not feeling it

[bleek]

I just can't get in to the black wheels look.

To me, those look like 19" spares. It's by no means a criticism of you, just my feelings in general, and 99% of people seem to love black wheels....I just can't get into them :o

Great wheels and everything...just not my taste I guess.

[Irakz]

I am not digging the wheels but that may be due to the picture not having enough contrast. I may love them in person but it almost looks like the wheels are missing....lots of money for a nice set of wheels and you can't even see them....

[LS2GTO]

The wheels is what gives the car that Nascar look.

Stealthy and tastefully done!

I bet higher resolution pics of them will change some of you who can't appreciate them in person.

Like someone else already stated put a Midwest front lip on it and it'll be stealthy pimp!

Even though I'm not feelin the wheels I would have to agree that the midwest splitter would certainly look right at home on that car

[ls2goatmaniac]

looks good but if u show the lips it would looks better..

Great wheels and everything...just not my taste I guess.Sometimes I think that it looks AMAZING, sometimes I feel just as you do. I HATE it when can not tell where the rim ends and the sidewall begins. Also, most black wheels look completely different/ better in person. I think that when you do the black wheel thing, it needs a lip to break it up. I'm not saying your car looks bad, my buddy has a black Corrado with black wheels on it, looks lame in pictures, but really really good in person.

[chupacabra]

i always have been a fan of a silver car with all black wheels, your car is a perfect example of why i dig it so much, nicely done!

[TallyGTO]

I like that, it sits really nice on those springs. Looks good.

[Doric]

They look good black, but they need a silver lip, it blends in too much with the tires, almost makes it look like spares...
Bingo. That lip makes all the difference in the world. Lip = orgasmic. No lip = shitastic.

IMO.

[Loosecannon]

Dang! Those wheels look better on your car than they did on mine!!! I want them back!!!! ;)
They really do look better on a silver car than they did on my all black car.
I'm just glad you really like them man,...what a shitty day when ya bought them..all rainy and pissy out. I cried all the way home...then was ok when i counted the money again,...then cried,..then smiled...;)

[enjoisht]

Awesome lookin man!!

Agreed on the polished lip.

[WoodyGtoTin]

car looks amazing

[pugads650]

damn one of the nicest gto ive seen on this site be carefull with those curbs though it would suck if you scratched off some of the black off those wheels.

let me know when your ready to sell it

[Oh4GTO]

Everyone and their mother has black wheels with polished lip.

[Infamous MG]

That color combo is incredible!

[04_GTO_Jimbo]

looks good man. jealous am i.

[BrandonS]

I like the black with the silver. It looks really sharp. I think the wheels look like a larger version of our spare tire rim though. :wall:

[deuce189]

why does the simplest looking of wheels have to be so expensive, AHH! By the way those look gorgeous. exact look i want, suddle and ready to hit the road course.

[Underoath]

Everyone and their mother has black wheels with polished lip.

There must be a reason for that.... oh yea... because it looks good (to everyone and their mother, apparently)

[bvbull200]

I can understand the argument that there is too much black or needs a lip, but there are a few pictures where you can really see the wheels and I think it looks great. Nice work.

[schufflerbot]

those wheels are amazing.

outstanding choices, almost exactly what i have planned for my red 04...

cept i like mine sans spoiler.

[GMMillwright]

I 100% agree. I don't see much of a point in spending CCW money on wheels that you can't see, but it's your car and if you're happy with it... that's what counts.

+1.

[phantom04]

:iagree: 100%. A red lip on those would look absolutely fantastic. Otherwise, I'd go with a tire similar to this Nitto with a thin red line, just to break it up a little. Otherwise, I think your car looks great.

[pugads650]

what are those red walls lol.

[rmpage]

How would one go about anodizing a set of CCWs? I want to do something similar to a set of 505As, only a sort of hyper black color (e.g. lighter).
