I was surprised too. apparently enkei makes a lot of factory wheels. Obviously on toyotas. The centercaps are enkei all the way. Anyhow, I like Cuccumber's rims the best. I think all dark washes the rim and tire out and makes it look almost like you are floating, or on cinder blocks. Each to their own. Just my opinion, but I think dark colored rims look best with a polished center and polished wide lip. 100% dark just looks like it isn't even there, and washes the car out to me. I think rims play a major part in making the car look like it does. Without being able to see the rims, none of your curves, lines, etc will really stand out as much in most cases. Anyhow, if u like dark, go for it.
