New wheels, what color?
Monday, February 05, 2007 4:12 PM
I have some slipstream knockoffs on the way in 16"... not sure how much I dig the polished but refinishing them is no big deal....

Polished:


Gun metal/gloss black:


Steel grey:


Of course, black car but I really want to paint it white... not sure when that will happen though.

So which one do you think will look best?

if you go w/ a white car get the rims in bronze or black, if you keep the car black get the steel grey.

I actually like the bronze idea, I'm not so sure if I like the duplicolor bronze paint and not sure where to source paint for it....

If you're willing to spend some cheddar, you can get a custom bronze in a form normally used for cars. Do a one-stage job, acrylic enamel or whatever. That particular paint type gives you unlimited options, whereas the Duplicolour paint I used comes in one colour of bronze.
