So I just got these rims :



Can't decide which color to paint my car. Definitely want to keep the rims a while. I was thinking celtic blue or corvette supersonic blue. Opinions?

I just went through the color phase of trying to decide what I want. I think it's easier to find what brand of paint you want to use then go through all the blues they have to offer. I went with house of color paint so there is plenty of colors to choose from. Are you going to do pearl, candy or what?

I have a vette in lemans blue. Def the best color imho. Try daytona blue from nissan (350z)

Be different. Paint them hot pink.

Is your car white now?

Go with white with a blue pearl clear, keep the rims snow white... I just got the flu thinking about it... original.

Congrats on purchasing fantastic WHEELS. The rim is just the edge.

Perosnlly, I like the white!

I like the white as well, can you throw up a pic of your car with the wheels on it?

I like silver

I'm stupid, reread the thread, and think some sort of pearlescent-y blue like this would look good:


Given the initial two choices, the first.

Wow, I made the same mistake thinking he was talking about painting the wheels. I'm still partial to white but can't go wrong with the supersonic blue or the maybe something a little deeper like what was posted above.

Just sell me the rims so you don't have to worry about it

Those are my old rims. They were for sale right here in Commifornia...
Had to get rid of them cause they will not clear my new brake system.

FWIW, keep the rims white and repaint the car white with blue pearl like previously mentioned.

Hope you enjoy your new rims Cody.

I love me some TE37's, those were my dream wheels for nearly a decade. I'd agree on keeping them white.

Red with white wheels is attention getting combo. A couple of red colors that stand out are Mazda Velocity Red, and Mazda Copper Red Mica.

Or maybe stick with Mitsubishi colors and go with Rotor Glow.

+2 on the Audi blue.

That Audi blue just slightly darker

yeah +1

I think they'd look good with the blue they're putting on the newer Nissan GTR's.

Coral blue #2 semigloss...

If you're into blues, VOLK had two that might interest you since.
Look up their F Zero blue and Magnesium blue.

Magnesium



F Zero

i believe he is asking about what color to paint the car, not the wheels.

Yes, I read that. The OP was favoring blues, and these were two unique blues that came to mind. Also, they are VOLK specific. I've never seen anyone do an entire car in this color, so the only examples I could find were on wheels.

those rims are ILL son! way jelous
