Yup. Black Chrome doesn't do much for me anymore... but it still looks good.

Mach's are so sexy, it almost doesn't matter what wheel you get. I would say that chrome lip on the Fr's will ruin the flow of the car......

The saleens make the car look more aggressive, partially by covering up less of the brakes. The black Fr500s cover up more. Id go with the saleens.

Saleens would look sick on a TR Mach 1. But either rim you suggested would look great!

I do love the Saleens, but now I'm almost not sure if I want to go with black ones. I fear the all black thing would get tiring quick than other finishes. Then again, I don't really know.

I wonder what silver and hypercoated Saleens would look like. I love the look of silver on our Machs. REALLY sets the paint off.

Anything dark gray on a wheel looks good on red.. Or any color for that matter
