Okay, it's time for new wheels and I'm thinking that I might want hyperblack. The only problem is that all the pictures of wheels that you see on sites on the net look different (and they could even have them mislabeled). Even if you go to wheel manufacturer websites, their "glamour" shots look really different from one to the next. Some shots look totally like gunmetal, others look very silvery. You'd think that two different styles of wheels in hyperblack from the same company would look to have the same finish, not one lookin' silver and one lookin' gunmetal.

Anyway...I've spent a hell of a lot of time trying to find out what hyperblack really looks like. I've been to local shops and no one ever has anything in hyperblack there. I don't think I've even seen them on a car. Probably because no one gets them because who would order a color when they don't really know what it looks like?

So if anyone has hyperblack rims on their car, if you could put up some pics, that would be awesome. Just so I could see what they look like under normal lighting conditions.

Here's a couple of links to show the difference I'm talking about (BTW, I didn't even bother to see if all of these have the right bolt pattern, I just included them to show the color differences...but the color of those HP's in the 4th link is awesome):

I know what you mean. I can't tell the difference between

Gunmetal and Hyperblack :huh?:
Silver and HyperSilver :huh?:
Chrome and HyperChrome :rolleyes:


This is how the Arospeed RSGT HyperBlacks look on the website


And here they are on a car. More photos are at this guy's CarDomain.




Oh, and for future reference, this is more of a "Appearance" topic so you might get more responses there :thumbsup:
