Default Recommendations for Black Rims?

I have a 2006 LR3 HSE in silver but am looking to get new rims (preferrably black). Can anyone recommend a website or brand of wheels that are black and fit the LR3? Thanks!

Easiest thing to do is go to a web site like tirerack.com. You pick your vehicle and you can see which wheels fit and what they will look like on your LR. I have a black 2006 LR3 SE. Would love to put some darker gray (anthracite, etc) or black wheels on mine. Of course that would be very hard to slip by the wifey.

Default Plastidip them :)

why don't you just plastidip the wheels black. Cost me about $20 to do all my wheels. They've lasted so far about 2 years.

Plasti dip also comes in anthracite gray. I've also plastidipped my grill and side vent.

Yup, I removed whell, scrubbed real good whith wheel acid front and back to get off all the baked on brake dust, dry, mask tire, spray let dry , do several coats, think it was 5-6 cans for 4 rims but I did the entire wheel front and back

Look in my 05 lr3 thread

Think I used the brand from Lowes?
