No, don't. I saw a NBM and a Black SS at the northern nationals just recently, its to much, it was those rims in fact. the crome or satin helps compliment the cars color, when you go black, one, it throws the color off, secound, those rims do not look very cool on a F-body. I would stay with the crome, or go with a diffrent crome rime. JMHO
