Couldn't you just powder coat the spokes and tape off the lip of the rim? A pro powder shop should have the tape needed to do that. That would really look sweet!!!

I am thinking of doing something unique with some wheels, but that is probably 6 months off. Gotta save up, not the cheapest thing in the world since it involves a new set of wheels, and some tricky powder coating. I think it would look amazing though. Not going to reveal my thoughts, don't want anyone to steal them! :)

Here's another 2¢...

Black wheels on red HHR have a "late 80's BBS look" that was on the Trans Am. Bleh.

Blacking out the stock wheels... meh. A little too UAV for my own tastes. Blacking them out except for the beveled area is worse. Looks too much like a "driveway mod."

Again, just my 2¢... collect and spend as you see fit.

Are those 18 or 17 inch rims?
