those with a black or gunmetal center maybe use the chrome lip or do the whole rim one color.

Now if you want my opinion and are looking for high end wheels, get some 3 piece HRE wheels in black with a polished lip. The 540R series are all amazing looking. Just my opinion though.

I know all about HREs my friend's car carried them as an HRE sposored car for SEMA last year. They look great and all but I dont think they are for Evos. I always imagined them on RWD vehicles with the deep lip. Then again I might be wrong. Regardless heres his car with the HRE 840R. These wheels I love

Check out the Enkei RPM2 (Bortex) in Hyper Black. I saw a set of those on a Tarmac black that looked nice (VERY nice).
