So I ordered my rims the other day. They should have shipped today but it got me wondering. What exactly is hyper black? Is it a material? A color? What? The reason I ask is because I have to do something with that front grille. Since Hyper Black is not chrome I think it will look odd to have that on my rims and have a grille with chrome on it. I was thinking it would be cool to have the chrome matched to the Hyper black but I am not sure if it's a type of paint color or something else...If anyone knows I would appreciate knowing where I can find the color or a place that can do it...Thanks...

Not that I wouldn't do something like this either so I'm not trying to be rude, but you ordered wheels in a color you don't know about? It's not like they're $20 and if they suck then oh well...wheels are expensive. I hope it works out for you and would love to see some pics when you get them in

a5ylum5150....I'm not trying to be rude either but I think I know my wheels aren't 20 bucks...I didn't drop a grand not knowing what they look like. I know exactly what they look like. I know of quite a few people who knew everything about the wheels they ordered only to be disappointed by the quality when they received them so I hope your not suggesting I made a decision in haste because I am asking a question that so many people on so many different forums have asked about this type of wheel. If you look at hyper black wheels they all can look so different....Google 'em and see if you can come to a conclusion...Some look black..some look gunmetal...some look like chrome....So I guess my question should be more like "What is the process to make hyper black wheels because the final product looks different on each manufacturer"????

I havent really looked into them but will be very soon as i need new tires...Lookin forward to seeing how yours are so it can help me get a better understanding

Well honestly I wasn't trying to get testy...I hear what you're saying. I will definetely post pics but the one thing I know from having wheels on previous cars is they never look the same in a pic and in person. And never look the same on one car to another. Sucks eh?

Just to show ya what I am talking about. Here are two wheels. Both from Ruff Racing. Both Hyper Black. One (the one I chose - RR r395) looks more chrome and the other one looks more gunmetal. The pic of the car is with the one I chose which is what sold me on the wheel but looks nothing like BLACK CHROME.

Yea I see what youre saying....nice choice btw haha
