I'm looking for a black wheel and the only true all black wheel I see on Wheeldude's site is the Torque.

I prefer the looks of the P1 but the only black listed has a red stripe. (blarf)

They do have the P1 listed in Gunmetal and judging by the picture it looks black to me.

Does anybody have these or seen these and can tell me if they are indeed this dark in person.

Or is there a chance of getting the P1's in flat black without the red lip?

Thanks!

gunmetal is a great alternative to a black wheel

it is super dark, almost black.

Will the P1's with the 48mm offset have a nice lip like the pics on your site show?

fairly easy, the dark color hides a lot of the break dust/dirt. takes awhile to clean due to the spokes and all the little crevices here and there, but not too bad.
