I need your feedback guys. I have been wanting to buy a set of black rims for my white 1998 Buick Riviera Supercharged Coupe for quite a while. Will these American Racing AR921 rims that I saw on 4wheelonline look great on my Riviera? Or is it too sporty looking?

I, personally, don't like any black rims, they all look like plain steels to me.
As for the design - you can hardly find a straight line anywhere on the Riviera, and rims shouldn't be the spot, I think.

I think you may be able to see those rims on the tirerack.com rim selector, with a picture of a Riv. Could be wrong though.

At the end of the day the most important opinion is yours, if you like it, you should probably take it.

Albert mentioned great site tirerack.com, https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/results.jsp?autoMake=Buick&autoModel=Riviera&autoYear=1997&autoModClar=&package=false
