Regret Black Wheels?
Anyone regret not going with the bi color wheels? Do the black wheels chip or mar easily from road debris?
If a dealer has a car on lot that ticks all the buttons except for the wheels, will they swap them out for you? Thanks! |

They will probably put up a fight, but be insistent and they will give in. It an easy swap. There’s absolutely no reason they can’t do it.

Black wheels, at least the matte ones, are extremely attractive for dirt and sand. But when clean very beautiful.

As far as black wheels, power coating (I assume the 791Ms are) protects the wheel pretty well, but over time everything can get a bit duller. About 1 in 5 cars I see with light colored wheels have brake dust that ruins the look anyway. Yet most cars going down the road with black wheels look good to my eye.

I have black wheels, no issues. Easy to keep clean, especially if ceramic coated
