    I'd get the S6:F instead (available in 17"), especially if I had a II-IV in Blizzard Pearl.

    I love aftermarket wheels, but if you go black, go all black. I agree with others and have to say no dice on these.

    WOW that Five Axis car looks amazing. Agreed look for different wheels. As a fellow black on black enthusiast I think you can find something a little better.

    How can i get the taillights from that white prius pictured above? I love how they are not blacked out, but I think those taillights would look great on my Winter Gray Prius.

    The original Five Axis photo didn't have smoked taillights so they were photoshopped in, but several members here have smoked them out using a tinted film.

    They should black out the whole roof and then it would look complete.

    Yes, one of the best looking non-OEM wheels I've seen. If you make it too similar to factory 17", it's never going to look as good, but these are different enough.
