Like Ironhorse said, black steelies are the domain of taxicabs and cop cars that don't give a damn about cars.

Steelies are fine for the wear and tear but for the love of internal combustion, spring for the extra $10 a wheelcover to give it some semblance of appearance. Hell, go to the pick your part, get 2 types of covers but just make sure they're the same on both sides if you're that cheap. Crappy tire should have some for $14 each.

I sprung for Honda wheelcovers to at least give it the look of the base model myself.
