Thanks Tom. I'm not a fan of black wheels either, save perhaps on a black
car.
They do look better when they're not solid black - some car lines offer
black wheels with silver accents.
Black does make sense from the brake dust issue. My wheels typically are the
dirtiest part of my ride between car washes.

Had some time this afternoon, so I rendered the Corvette pics on my
calibrated monitor and was able to coax more detail out of
the red bloom. The young lady in the first pic was guarding the front
row for the GM prez and his entourage. Shot her at 12,800
under the red light that was keeping bathing the stage before the show
began. A video is playing on a screen in the background,
thus the burned out corner. The other pics are all shot at ISO 3200,
f4.5, with shutter speeds ranging from 1/40th to 1/125th.

Nice gallery. I also enjoyed your article.
I don't know what is is with black wheels. As far as I'm concerned
they make even the best looking vehicles look like dogs. That red
vette would have been a a lot prettier with matte silver/gray wheels.

Thanks Tom. I'm not a fan of black wheels either, save perhaps on a black
car. I think automakers are striving for an aggressive look, thus the
color of darkness pervades.
