What color should I paint my rims?

[FunkyBuddha]

Anybody can photoshop the colors and post them here. Please.

I was thinking of bronze or gunmetal, but I'm free to any other suggestions. No funky ass colors though. Keep this serious.

Also, how would it look if I did a polished lip w/ colored spokes?

Maybe gunmetal......also are you spray painting them or powdercoating them?

i think it would look awesome and unique if you could fill in the crease of each spoke black or laser blue to match the car.

 

[sndsgood]

I like it the way it is personally. maybe polish them

 

[Pretzellogic]

I would go with gunmetal, unless you can get a bronze that is really dark.

I agree

 

[JCell]

Yeah, the blue rims look hot

 

[FunkyBuddha]

Uhh...the blue rims..hmmm..no. It looks kinda cheesy, maybe because I'm looking at it from the computer screen. So far I like the 2nd pic from tx speed demon. I like that dark color, but I think I will put a gloss on it. The gold rim kinda looks dull...what do you all think?

More suggestions!!!! Please!

No I won't be spraypainting. Either get a shop to paint it for me or get them powdercoated

definitely a dark bronze like this:

I agree with protegeV. I think that bronze in that picture would go perfectly.

 

[FunkyBuddha]

Ok..bronze it is. What do I say to the body shop/powdercoating place? What color is that exactly? Can I specify what I want it to look like?

 

[protegeV]

see if you can get ahold of Volk, or Rays engineering(manufacturer of volk wheels) and find out what they call the color of their wheels. The bronze pretty much the same for all their models of wheel and it is a very nice color. or find a good high res pic of one, and print it out to show to the shop...

I'm tellin ya, u get on Need for Speed underground, pull up the Lancer, set it up to look like your car, and then paint the rims gunmetal and bronze. It helps a lot for this kind of thing.

lol(lol)

Hey Funky,

I would say leave them as is, but if you must, a darker shade of bronze would be the best. Also get them powercoated as it is more durable.
