Kinesis K58R Wheels with Black Centers....
Here is a snapshot of my new wheels..well sort of.
I had the original high polished centers refinished in a Powdercoated High Polished Black Finish. IMHO...Absolutely Stunning on a Black Car!
The bright red calipers truly stand out!
Click on my sig to see the pics.

Recommendation....If you get black centers, get the painted option. I was told that the black anodized option looks a bit strange over time. Apparently they show a greenish hue as they age and won't appear to be jet black...Just a head's up... :-)

The owner has them on his seal grey turbo...Keep in mind these are Kinesis wheels, so that may not apply to other wheels companies like HRE....

I guess another solution would be to just let the black brake dust build up on the centers if they fade...
