Default Black Wheels Other than Spoon?

I like black wheels and think they will look great on my CW R. Besides the Spoons, what are some other high quality, lightweight wheels that come in black? Pictures would be appreciated of course...

Regamaster EVOs are identical to spoon sw , but they come in other colors, including the gunmetal variety.

Default Kosei K-1

It depends on what you mean by high quality but the ever so popular Kosei K-1 can be painted to whatever color you want. I didn't feel bad at all taking some sanpaper and spray paint to my K-1s because they're only $130 a rim. As for quality, I never seen one brake at a autocross before.

SSR i think has a black rim forget the name

Team Locos have black too, not light, but black or sorta black

Kosei come in GM

AND, i think Desmond makes the rims for Regamaster and Spoon, Regamaster doesnt make them for spoon....at least thats what i think..could be wrong

I used dulpicolor primer and enamel paint. I have had them on for about 3 months and almost no chiping. When I do get a chip I can just touch it up with duplicolor touch up paint.

Those black Volks are ultra-sweet... way better looking than the Spoons in my opinion.

If you have a Type R, then look online at http://www.adrwheels.com and go to their new wheel section, they have this one wheel that has 5 split spokes. I was ready to buy them however they are only offered in a 5 lug, I have a GS-R. They are not completely black, but they are a very dark charcoal. the color is called HMC BLACK. I forget the name of the wheel but it is on the website.
