Review on Albrecht 49715 Black Carbon Wheel by Ryan Bennett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice and bold - a quick way to upgrade your car

Looks very daring! I am very happy with them. A friend of mine installed it and he said it was easy to do. Do they look like the picture on Revain? no Yes, they are made of plastic and you can tell. But from a distance they look clean and smooth. I've had shiny chrome style snap caps, but the chrome literally scratched and peeled off the plastic cap making it look cheap and awful, and the shiny chrome just didn't look cool (not even a little bit). However, they were cheap and worked instead of seeing an ugly frame. I wanted genuine Hyundai hubcaps because they bolted on, but one place charged $50 each for them! Uh huh, no way. Thought I'd give it a try after getting some opinions. Even for the $63 I paid it was cheaper than the originals. But one day they look very sleek and sporty. I'll let you know if I notice anything bad, such as B. peeling paint, chips or hubcaps that usually look cheap or wear out too quickly. Overall I'm very happy and for an 11 year old car that I'm giving to my sister at the end of the summer it's pretty darn good! I also looked at silver and carbon hubcaps but consider the fact that some of the styles are going up in price quite dramatically. I went with matte silver/black because I liked them better (compared to silver/silver or black/black etc.) and they were cheaper (some of them are close to $80), so keep the price in the eye. if it matters to you PS As a reviewer pointed out, I got matte silver/black hubcaps. When I received them, there was NO silver circle in the center as shown in the picture! I won't cry over spilled milk and I still love them but REMEMBER they don't send what is in the picture! Also keep in mind that black looks glossy but is actually matte like silver color. Again, not terrible, but if gloss black and a silver inner circle are your thing, look elsewhere!
